A Futuristic Tele-Medicine Center?

Ever heard of a tele-medicine center? I hadn't until rather recently. It turns out that one of the problems they face is how to make such a center both futuristic and psychologically acceptable to clients as an alternative to a more conventional doctors' office. It seems that attempting to make it both the former and the latter is pulling the issue in opposite directions. However, here is my solution to the problem, and my attempt in resolving this particular celestial tug of war:

My first thought is that it may not be in the best interest to make it futuristic. tele-medicine being a new thing, would one not want to create psychological continuity with potential patients? Thus, I'd argue that it should not be explicitly futuristic with funny shaped chairs and tables, but "almost ordinary" with "sudden" "surprising" devices that do not dominate the conscious landscape, and yet make it futuristic. Thus, my thrust in general is in a more conventional arrangement with an overlay of futurism.

For instance, a tasteful but normal looking chair, that has a small innocuous device on one arm where if you put your hand a small screen gives your heart and pulse rate. Other thoughts: Laptop friendly, wireless internet, outlets.

About waiting places and rooms, I personally believe that anywhere you want a person to wait there should be a mirror somewhere. Humanity remains incredibly narcissistic. Now, if one had

How cool is that?
