Policies
Patients are seen in our office by appointment. We make every effort to see our
established patients with urgent needs within 24 hours, however we also try to
accommodate our new patients as soon as possible.
Patient Instructions:
HEALTH HISTORY: Please bring your complete health history including your past
and current medical and surgical history as well as family history.
ALLERGIES: Please let us know your drug and food allergies and keep us
updated with this information on an ongoing basis.
MEDICATION LIST: Please bring a complete list of all of the prescription and non-
prescription (over-the-counter) medications that you are currently taking. Be sure
to include the exact dosages. You may also bring in all the medicine
bottles/packaging to show the doctor. This will help us in providing better, more
timely care for you. Many medicines interact with each other and the doctor will be
better able to determine an appropriate treatment plan for you with this information.
INSURANCE CARD: Always bring your current insurance card with you. This will
expedite your paperwork and enable us to bill your insurance accurately. We also
encourage you to find out ahead of time what your insurance covers. This will help
you in making your treatment decisions. Co-pays are due at the time of services.
