How long is a return visit?

Return patient appointments are typically 45-60 minutes. The length of the visit may vary depending on complexity of your case, or how often you been seen. Fifteen minute brief consults may be recommended when patients have complex questions via email or phone messages to their providers. Providers may recommend follow up visits in various frequencies, depending on each case. Your doctor will let you know how often you need to be seen during your treatment. If you have laboratory testing ordered either at an outside facility, or performed at our clinic, you will be scheduled for a follow up Lab Review to discuss the results with your provider.

How long does it take to cancel a new patient appointment?

There is no charge for cancellations made within 48 hours of your new patient appointment. If your new patient appointment is missed, or less than 48 hours notice is given, you will lose your $100 deposit.

How long is a functional medicine appointment?

In functional medicine, a clear and detailed history is vital for diagnostic and treatment decision making. Our new patient appointments can be 1.5-2 hours in length, as our physicians take this extra care in assessing your unique case, health, lifestyle, history, and individual concerns. Please come prepared for this consult length, and bring a snack and/or water bottle for yourself if needed. If you’d like, you may bring a spouse, relative, or friend along with you to assist you with taking notes. You may also choose to record your visits, as our physicians do cover a lot of information during new patient appointments.

Do you have to sign a release form for medical records?

Medical Records. If you are needing a copy of your medical records, you must sign a records release form. Records sent to other healthcare providers can be faxed from our office at no charge. Records released directly to patients (to self) will incur a nominal processing fee if over 10 pages.

Why is it important to have a checkup on your dog?

Regular checkups allow us to establish a baseline in your pet’s health and make us aware of any changes that may indicate future problems. We highly recommend bringing your pet in for regular exams. Often times health problems that go undetected can become more serious issues when left untreated, so checkups are important even when your pet appears healthy.

Is obesity a problem for pets?

Nutritional Counseling. Obesity is a common problem among pets, as it can be easy to over-feed a pet that knows how to beg. It is so ingrained in our society that food = love. However, being overweight is a serious problem for animals and can cause real health problems as they get older.
