New Patients

As a new patient, our secretarial staff can facilitate scheduling tests, office visits, and other procedures while other staff members serve you by acquiring necessary pre-authorizations, completing employer paperwork, and filing insurance claims.

During your visits to our office, our nurses and physician assistants often serve as a liaison between you and your physician, allowing him to maximize his time in the operating room and in the office. These highly qualified heath-care professionals will be able to answer many of your questions regarding pre-operative and post-operative care, including recommending treatment, relaying test results, and prescribing medications.
