• We are more than happy to write mail-order prescriptions, although we do not fax them to the pharmacy, you can pick them up or we can mail them to you.
• If your doctor orders any tests or procedures, we will obtain authorization from your insurance company, Please allow 5-6 business days for this process. After your tests have been authorized, the facility will contact you, unless otherwise specified.
• Follow up appointments are required for all test results, including labs unless otherwise specified. These are generally scheduled 1-2 weeks after your test date to allow time for the office to receive test results.
• All forms that are filled out by the Doctor requiring their signature will be processed at fifty (50) dollars per page. This includes FMLA, disability forms, work notes, etc. Please be prepared to pay at the time the forms are delivered to us.
