Scheduling
Appointments
We realize that our patients’ time is valuable, and we make every effort to see patients at their scheduled time. However, occasionally, our office falls behind schedule.
We ask for your understanding; we, also, ask that patients provide as much advanced notice as possible when running late
for an appointment or when needing to cancel. With this advanced notice, the time can be scheduled for another patient.

Insurance and Payment
Information
We are a provider for Medicare and most major insurance plans. Since we provide insurance billing, we encourage all patients to confirm their coverage prior to making an appointment. Co-payments are due at the time of the appointment, along with any applicable deductible payment. If the insurance company does not pay the full balance, or denies the claim, then any unpaid balance is due within 30 days following the appointment.
Please call us with any questions regarding which insurance plans we accept or other billing concerns. Insurance coverage and benefit questions should be directed to your insurance company.
