Appointments are scheduled based on the number and type of problems that you would like us to evaluate. This will help us serve you better, and stay on schedule.

Please call the office to make an appointment in advance. If you are 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.

Please tell the scheduling clerk about all of the problems you would like us to check to help us reserve the proper amount of time for your appointment.

We make a sincere effort to adhere to our appointment schedule and appreciate your patience if we are late due to emergencies or hospital surgery.

· Medications: Please bring all of your medication bottles with you to your first appointment so that we can verify your medications and dosages.

· Registration forms: Completing the patient forms will save time. Download, print and complete the patient forms, and bring them with you to the office.

· X-Rays, MRI / Scans and other tests: The doctors will review records and tests as a part of your evaluation. Bring copies of both report and films from X-Rays or tests you have had prior to the appointment. CD copies are generally not acceptable. If you have been told that the films were “sent to the office,” call the office at least 48 hours prior to your appointment to verify that the films or test results will be available for your visit.

· Worker’s Compensation / accidents or Liability: Compensation and liability cases require special paperwork. Inform the staff at the time you schedule your appointment if you intend to file for compensation or other liability. If you fail to inform the staff of compensation or liability issues, you may compromise your benefits.

· Insurance Information
We participate with Medicare and accept most major Insurance plans.

· Fees & Payments
We make every effort to decrease 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, MasterCard, Visa, and Discover for your convenience. If we are a participating provider of your insurance company, we will bill them. However, payment is the patient's responsibility. We will help in any way we can to assist you in handling claims.

· Prescriptions & Renewals
Please request all prescriptions and authorizations for renewals between 8:30am - 3:00pm, Monday to Friday, when our full records are available. Renewals requested at other times will be filled only for extreme or emergent circumstances.
