Getting Ready for Your Visit

We will do everything we can to make your visit both comfortable and pleasant. If you are a new patient you will need to fill in a patient registration form before you come in to the office. You may download this form from our web site If you have a fax we can also fax a new patient questionnaire to you. Taking time to fill this form prior to your appointment saves you precious waiting time.

In order for us to provide the best care for you, it is very important that you bring the following items to your visit:

• Photo ID
• Insurance information and card
• Medical records from prior visits that you think may be helpful
• A referral from your doctor, your medical history and reasons for referral to us. Please remember that we need as much medical information as possible from your referring physician to make your visit meaningful.

• A list of your current medications
• Check book or a credit or debit card for your co-payments.
• Bring someone you trust who can also listen while the doctor discusses the treatment options with you.
