In addition, we offer visits for surgical clearance, hospital and nursing home transitions as well as any number of clinical and nursing procedural topics.
When you are ready, call our office to schedule your appointment. Be assured, it is always our intention to evaluate sick patients in need of acute care on the day of their call.
Getting Ready for Your Visit
In order for us to provide the best possible care for you, it is very important that you bring the following items to your visit:
New Patients:
- Driver’s License or Photo ID
- Insurance card
- Patient Demographic form
- HIPAA Acknowledgement & Authorization form
- Healthcare Pledge form
- Medication List form
- Your vaccination record
- Medical Records pertinent to the topic of concern
Returning Patients:
- Driver’s License or Photo ID
- Insurance card
- Medication List form
- A list of vaccination updates since your last visit
Prescription Renewals
Prescriptions are renewed on a same-day basis during regularly scheduled office hours. Where patients fall outside their recommended follow-up interval, we will likely require that the patient be seen in our office prior to medication renewal.
After Hours & Emergency Care
If you are experiencing a true medical emergency, dial 911, or head to the nearest emergency room. If you need to reach our on-call physician for a medical urgency, we provide 24-hours a day, 7-days a week coverage via our office telephone number and automated prompts. Although our office does not practice telemedicine, you can expect to be directed to utilize a local Emergency Room or Walk-In center, if you have a matter of medical acuity in need of attention outside of scheduled office hours. If you need to leave us a message after hours, you can do so by also using our automated telephone answering service and following the prompts to leave your voicemail message for our next business day’s attention.
Financial
All office visits are payable at the time of service. We accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards and debit cards. Where we participate with most insurances, we will bill your third party carrier for services rendered. Once the insurance carrier determines a patient’s cost-sharing responsibility, we will issue a statement to your billing address. Patients with visits occurring after insurance determinations of a cost-sharing responsibility will be expected to pay their balance prior to their visit. Subsequent statements are issued on a rolling 30-day basis and will incur additional fees. Please contact our billing office at (877) 938-7633 should you have any financial questions or concerns.
