New Patients Expectations

Our intake process can be performed through a secure online portal which will be emailed to you when you make your first appointment, to allow flexibility with your schedule and give you comfort filling it out from your home or office. This process continues to build a relationship with our patients as we maintain transparency and provide all the information necessary to give our patients clarity of what their healthcare will entail.

A member of our front office will give you an appointment-reminder call the day before your first appointment. When you check in, our front office will spend 30 minutes doing the following:
