Appointments
Please call the office to make an appointment in advance. If you're unable to keep your appointment, please call us as far in advance as possible so we may use that time to see another patient in need of care.
Fees & Payments
We make every effort to contain the cost of your medical care. Therefore, we request payment arrangements for all office services at the time they are rendered unless prior arrangements have been made. We accept cash, checks, American Express, MasterCard, Visa, and Discover for your convenience. If we are a participating provider of your insurance company, we will bill the insurance company for you. However, payment is the patient's responsibility. We'll help in any way we can to assist you in handling claims.
Prescriptions & Renewals
Please request all prescriptions and authorizations for renewals between 10:00am—5:00pm, Monday to Friday, when our full records are available. Renewals requested at other times will be filled only for extreme or emergency circumstances.
