Common Questions / Answers
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please make sure that you arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment time so that you can provide us with the necessary paperwork and insurance information to put into our system. Make sure to bring a valid form of ID and your insurance card if you have one. To save time, you can also print the New Patient Forms located on our forms page and bring them filled out to your appointment. It is helpful to bring testing results or information regarding any existing medical conditions that you have. Please also bring a detailed list of any medications and/or supplements that you are taking.
Do I need a referral to make an appointment?
No, you do not need a referral to make an appointment with a primary physician. We are currently accepting new patients.
However, for your visit to be covered through your medical insurance, please contact your insurance provider or human resource representative to understand the terms of your policy. Please note that some insurance policies require you to go to an assigned physician. If that is the case, please check to make sure that we are your assigned provider.
How will I pay for my care?
If you have insurance, please bring in your card and we will either collect your co-pay or bill your insurance plan. If you are not insured, we require payment at the time of service. We strive to have all aspects of our practice, including our professional fees, reflect our ethical and rational approach to your care.
How can I contact my medical doctor?
We take pride in our doctor-patient relationships and schedule plenty of time for you to get all of your questions answered. If you need to get in touch with your medical doctor in between appointments, please contact our main office to leave a message or schedule an appointment. A member if our staff may be able to assist you as well.
Will I be able to get copies of my test results?
Yes, upon request we are able to provide you copies of your test results.
Do you allow urgent or same day appointments?
We try to set aside some time for urgent visits. However, if you are having an emergency, please dial 9-1-1.
