Phone Calls:

Everyone’s call is important to us, but the hours in a day are limited. Calls or messages are returned in a “triage” (medical urgency) fashion, so be sure to leave a clear message regarding the reason for your call, your phone number and your status. You can always leave a message.

Calls for clarification of instructions given in association with a visit are not billed.

Calls for complaints not addressed at previous visits require an office visit or consultation, as does follow up treatment. There is a charge for a phone calls over 5 - 10 minutes or if it is a consult on a new condition.
