Insurance and Billing
We accept most traditional insurance plans, but please contact our office to verify acceptance of your plan. We are happy to file insurance for your reimbursement as long as you are free to choose your own doctor.
Payment Options
We accept checks, cash or credit cards. Please see our Financial Coordinator
for details.

Act requires that detailed information about payment and other payments of
value worth over ten dollars ($10) from manufacturers of drugs, medical
devices, and biologics to physicians and teaching hospitals be made
available to the public.
Laboratory
As a convenience to our patients we offer on-site blood draws. You do not need to schedule an appointment for this procedure, however our doctor’s lab order must be in your file. Blood draws are performed on a walk-in basis. The lab hours are Monday-Thursday from 7 AM - 2 PM; and on Friday the lab is open from 7:00AM - 11:00AM. We do not draw lab tests ordered by outside physicians.
Medication Refills
Please contact your pharmacy directly when due for a medication refill. They
will forward your request to us and we will respond within 48-72 hours.
