If you have a question about pre-authorization, please contact your insurance carrier prior to your appointment.

You must bring your insurance card(s) to each appointment to help us provide the most efficient and trouble-free processing of your claim. If you are not insured, we request payment at the time of service.

If your insurance changes, please be sure to notify us as soon as possible. Having accurate information enables us to contact you promptly and submit claims accurately.

If you have an emergency that requires immediate attention, call 911, or proceed directly to the hospital emergency room.

If you call our office for emergency problems after regular business hours or on holidays, you will be given an opportunity to speak to our message center. The operator will ask you a few questions and will contact the physician on call.
