Appointments
We see patients by scheduled appointment only. Scheduled appointments allow us to better serve your needs to keep waiting times at a minimum.
Please call as far in advance as possible for an appointment. If you are unable to keep it, please call to cancel so your appointment may be given to another patient.

Insurance Information
Our physicians participate in most all insurance plans. However, please check your insurance providers list of participating physicians to be sure your program allows you to be seen at our office. Also, please review with your insurance provider the rules and limitations on coverage and reimbursement.
It is important to always carry your insurance information with you. Before submitting an insurance form, be sure you have completed your portion and have signed it.

Telephone
We will try to provide you with the utmost concern and cooperation in managing your care. All telephone calls will be responded to in a timely fashion by either the nurse or one of the doctors, depending on the nature of your call. Because we want to give the same attention and courtesy to those patients visiting us during regular office hours, certain times will be set aside either during the early morning, lunch or late afternoon hours to respond to your inquiries. If you have a clear emergency, let our staff know so the doctor can speak with you immediately.

Fees and Billing
Payment, including co-pays, are expected at the time services are rendered for all office visits and procedures. We are a provider for most insurance carriers, but please inquire about any special arrangements you may have so our billing department can make your visit with the doctor more efficient. We do participate with Medicare and will bill your secondary insurance for you. Please undersand that Medicare rules require us to collect all co-pays, including anything not covered by Medicare, and you will be notified of this in writing prior to the time services are rendered.
