Bring all your medications and supplements that you are taking and information about your health history. If you have difficulty understanding medical instructions or directions, please bring a family member or caregiver who can help you.
Our appointments are mostly for information and medication management. At some appointments, we will do a fingerstick, blood pressure check and occasionally an injection. Most appointments take about 30 minutes, but for more complex conditions, they can last up to an hour. Wait times are generally 15 minutes after check-in.
Most insurances cover our service. If yours does not provide coverage, we will notify you in advance when possible.
