You will be given an appointment with one of our doctors or nurse practitioners. You are asked to bring your insurance cards, co-pay, a list of any medication you are on, the dosage of that medication. If you have any medical records that may help with your care please bring them with you to the appointment. In order for us to better serve your medical needs; we have supplied our Patient Information Forms (Consent, HIPAA, PHI, and INS.) and our Health Questionnaire (ROS). Please complete the forms and bring them with you. As a reminder, if your insurance requires a referral from your primary care physician authorizing your visit, you will need to make sure that has been done.

REVISITS
When you call to make a return visit your information is reviewed for any changes. If it has been a year or more since your last visit you will need to update forms and present your insurance cards again. If you have had any changes of significance since your last visit to our practice please let our office know. If you are coming in for a new problem please advise the scheduler and get any medical records pertaining to this sent to our office or bring them with you.

We look forward to meeting with you.
