appointment. Patient
Guidelines Primary Care
Referrals: Please obtain all of the necessary
referral forms (if required by your insurance) from your primary
care physician in advance of your visit. Unfortunately, patients
cannot be seen without the appropriate referral. Co-Payments: Co-payments and deductibles must be paid upon the patient’s
arrival. We accept cash, check and Visa/MasterCard and Discover
card. Noncovered services (prolotherapy, acupuncture, supplies and
equipment) must be paid for at the time of service. Attire for
Physical Therapy: Shorts or sweatpants with an elastic
waistband may be ideal, particularly if we are treating the lower
extremities. Loose-fitting clothing is recommended for treatment
of the upper extremities. Tardiness: Please call if you are running late. Office visits and planned
interventional therapy treatments may be abbreviated for patients
arriving 10-15 minutes late. Patients arriving more than 15
minutes late may be asked to reschedule. Obviously, we try to
deliver the same respect for your time. If we are running late,
the session will be completed in its entirety. Cancellations: We request that patients who are unable to keep an appointment
contact our office at least 24-business hours prior to the
scheduled appointment time since there are usually other clients
that could benefit from this treatment slot. Repeated Missed
Appointments: We will be unable to schedule future
appointments for patients having three (3) missed appointments
and/or cancellations without appropriate notice, particularly if
we feel that these missed appointments are adversely affecting our
intervention/treatment plan. Medication
Refills: To ensure that your medication needs
are met in a timely manner, we request you call our pharmacy
refill line at least three (3) business days prior to the date
your medication is scheduled to run out.
