New patients must arrive 15 minutes prior to their scheduled appointment to allow time for chart preparation.
Established patients with changes to personal, medical, or insurance information must also arrive 15 minutes early to update their records.
Minor children (under 18 years old) must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at the first visit, or whenever there are questions regarding treatment. Minors not accompanied by a parent/guardian on follow-up visits must have an Unaccompanied Minor form, completed by a parent/guardian, on file and will be responsible for any co-payments or charges due at the time of service.
Certain types of appointments require a credit card number to hold an appointment time. This information must be provided at the time of scheduling.
