At your first appointment, you will be asked to fill out a health assessment form. This form tells us about your medical and surgical history, as well as other important information we need to create your plan of care.

If you are referred to us by another doctor, or if you referred yourself, please be sure, we receive all necessary medical records, radiology films and pathology slides from any outside facilities at least (3) business days before your appointment so our doctors have time to review this information.

We may reschedule your appointment for another date, if we do not receive the needed information on time.
