Making an Appointment

Please have the following information ready when calling to schedule your appointment:

 

• Patient’s full name

• Date of birth

• Current insurance information

• Purpose of the appointment

 

If you are an established patient, you can request an appointment through our Patient Portal. If you do not have a Patient Portal account, please call our office and we can get you setup with one. It is very important that prior to your appointment, you verify that we have the correct insurance information on file. Failure to inform us of an insurance change may lead to unpaid charges that will be the patients’ responsibility.

 

What to bring to your Appointment

Please bring identification and your insurance card to each visit and notify us of any changes in your address, phone number, and/or insurance information. To assist your provider, new patients and patients with new prescriptions are asked to bring all medications (prescription and non-prescription) to each visit.

This spot is set aside for you and you only, out of courtesy for other patients please notify us so that we may allocate that time to a patient in need. We will be glad to reschedule a time that works for you. If we do not have 24 hour cancellation notice, you may receive a No Show Fee charge.
