Making Appointments:
Although allergy shots are given on a
first-come first-serve basis, during the allergy
shot hours, all other visits, including doctor visits,
breathing tests, and allergy skin tests require an appointment.
We try
our best to remain on schedule, however, emergencies sometimes arise. If we
are seriously delayed, we will try to notify you immediately. Shot patients
generally do not have to wait more than five to ten minutes. We ask for
your patience if you have to wait, we know your time is valuable, and we
hate to keep you waiting!
Your Appointment:
From
the time of your first visit, we will establish a permanent record,
complete a brief history, and registration form. If at any time your
personal information, address, phone, employment, or insurance information
changes, please notify our receptionist as soon as possible. Please
bring your medications with you to each doctor appointment, if
possible, especially if you tend to forget their names or are on several of
them. Although we welcome children and spouses of patients, and realize
that day care and bay-sitting are not always available, patients tend to
get a lot more out of their visit with the physician if they are not
distracted by very young children during the visit. We kindly ask that
you turn your cell phone off or on vibrate during visits, and not use your
cell phone when in the back office.
Canceling Appointments:
Very
often, our physician schedule is so busy that appointments are booked weeks
in advance. We can generally see urgent or sick visits within 1-3 days,
however, in respect for other patients needing an appointment, we ask that
you call us at least 24 hours in advance if you must cancel an appointment.
A fee of $25 will be charged to those patients not canceling at least
the day before their appointment, or not showing up for an appointment. If
you cancel twice in a row for an appointment, we ask for a $25 payment, to
be applied to your copay or deducible, before we can schedule a third time.
