ABOUT THE INITIAL SCHEDULING:

  • Individuals who have formerly been patients of our practice will not be allowed to return and our ineligible to use this requesting service
  • New patient appointments typically book about 3-4 weeks away.  Until you have had this new patient appointment we will not treat or meet any health care needs you may have nor can we accept your health records
  • Upon receiving your new patient request, we will typically answer your request through email and provide a suggested date/time for your initial appointment
  • If you are unable to accept the appointment date/time we have set, you must CALL the office (not email) to reschedule as long as we are provided at least 24 hours notice prior to your appointment
  • If you fail to provide notice, at least the day before your appointment, to cancel or reschedule or you simply do not show for your first appointment we will not set any other appointments for you in the future
  • If you arrive more than 15 minutes late for your first appointment, we will cancel this appointment and will not reschedule
  • All of our providers “share” patients, and unless specifically assigned to one physician for insurance purposes, patients may see different providers from time to time depending on availability
  • If a patient is required to assign a provider by their insurance company, they must do so prior to their visit
