General Information 

• MyChart is a tool we use within the organization to communicate and connect with patients. If you are not currently signed up it is strongly encouraged that you do. Access to MyChart allows more opportunity to connect with the office or providers without the hassle of calling and waiting on hold or leaving a voicemail. Through MyChart you can request medication refills, appointments, and ask questions to your care team.
• Initial visits to the office are with the MD. These visits include an assessment of current and past symptoms, medical history, and sometimes include follow-up lab work or testing. All information regarding follow up care will be given and discussed with you before you leave.
• FMLA Disability paperwork will not be filled out until you have received care in our office for 3 months.
• Follow up visits are typically with the NP or PA.
• If you are experiencing any issues or have any questions regarding your care, please reach out to the office.
