Is a virtual doctor appointment or in-person appointment better?

I've been hearing about telemedicine and virtual visits with doctors through Skype and other technology a lot lately. It's pretty amazing that doctors can diagnose and see patients from their own home through a computer screen today. Can virtual visits replace in-person doctor visits? What's the better choice- a virtual doctor appointment or in-person visit?
