About Your Appointment

Consult Appointment

For consult appointments – behavior, medication consults, and other longer appointments, please try to schedule these with 2-4 weeks notice, as our physicians can only do a certain number of these lengthy visits each week.

Routine Visits & Physicals

For routine well visits, sports and school physicals, we recommend scheduling these in advance to ensure your choice of appointment dates and times. We cannot guarantee well visit appointments on short notice however we will do our best to accommodate last minute and special request visits. Most insurance companies require a full calendar year between well visit appointments for children over 2 years.

Make A Lists

Make the most of the time that you have with your provider and be a good note taker. Important questions or concerns? Write them down and bring them to the appointment so that your provider may address them. Take the answers with you. There is usually a lot of information exchanged at a visit, so take notes during your visit. This will be helpful when you need to refer to a subject matter discussed during your visit with your provider
