During Coronavirus pandemic
Please wear a mask or face covering before entering our office. This is for the health and safety of you, other patients and our staff.
We have removed some chairs in the lobby area. Therefore, if you arrive and there is not a seat available, we kindly ask that you wait outside the front office door until you see a seat become available. Another option is to please wait in your vehicle until your appointment time and come up at that time.
Our hallway is narrow, so we ask that you please do your best in maintaining distance when walking down the hallway. Once inside your provider office, your seat will be at minimum 6 feet distance from your provider.
We have guest bathroom available for washing your hands with soap and water. Also available is hand sanitizer at the front desk window, the guest bathroom and inside your provider office room.
Some insurance carriers are allowing and/or adding Telehealth visits to part of the benefit plan. Please contact your insurance plan directly to find out details of your plan benefit for Telehealth and if any authorization is required.

Starting Monday, June 22, 2020 to December 31, 2020*: We will continue to offer Telehealth video call appointments with your provider (Monday through Friday), as long as your insurance plan is allowing during the national emergency declaration.

With Telehealth virtual care, you will be able to connect to a professional through a live video connection using your smartphone, tablet or pc with camera and microphone. This is available for all patients until further notice.
If you are a new patient for a first visit, please follow these required checklist of items we need BEFORE your first appointment date.
Instructions on how this telehealth works:
1.) You will receive a text message from your provider on the day of your scheduled appointment and around the same time as your scheduled appointment time. This text message will have a link. Click on the link which then opens a window in your mobile phone internet browser. (Note: if you do not have a mobile phone or text capability, then an email will be sent to you with the link).
2) Within a few seconds after you click on the link, the provider will see that you are 'online' and will initiate the call to you. You will be prompted to accept or reject a call. Press 'ACCEPT'.
3) A second prompt pop-up will come up asking to allow your microphone and camera. Press 'ALLOW'.
4) You then should see and hear your provider and vice-versa. If you have issues with audio, check your audio volume and make sure the microphone is not muted.
Before your telehealth appointment date, please go through these steps of checking certain settings on your mobile phone or ipad device:
If you have an iPhone or ipad, please check these settings and restart your iphone/ipad afterward:
Important your phone is on the latest version software update.
1.) Go to Settings
2.) Click on General
3.) Click on Software Update.
4.) Download and install any update.
All devices: Best that you are connected to wiFi network versus just using your phone cellular data roaming.
iPhone devices: After the update is complete then perform these steps:
Only follow these 4 steps below if you have an issue with Safari browser not coming up or it appears your video link is buffering (you see just yourself in the bottom corner, but not the provider video image). Then, try resetting all network settings on your iPhone. This will delete all the stored Wi-Fi passwords, so after you complete these steps, your phone should automatically reboot and then you will have to connect back to your wiFi network. These steps may be able to resolve Safari cannot open the page iPhone error as well.
For most insurances, telehealth is covered no differently than if you came into the office (in terms of co-pay, coinsurance, deductible, etc.).
*The Telehealth / Virtural care is only temporary during this health emergency.
*After your telehealth visit, a member of the front staff will call you to schedule a follow-up appointment that will be back in the office* (*unless we contact you otherwise for another telehealth visit). The front office staff will also collect any copay/coinsurance/deductible amounts over the phone with credit card payments.
Thank you for being our patient, we look forward to providing you with the highest quality care and treatment during this time of national health emergency.
