For a seamless initial visit, please have on hand any pertinent medical documents, imaging studies (such as X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans), your health insurance card(s), and a valid photo ID. Also, be ready to pay any copays, deductibles, or coinsurance dictated by your insurance coverage.

New patient appointments tend to be a bit longer. Please plan to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to your appointment to take care of any necessary paperwork. The appointment itself will likely take around 2–3 hours.
What is your office’s policy on appointment cancellation?
