Patient Resources

Practical information for a more comfortable, informed first visit.

What to expect at your first appointment

Your first visit is an opportunity to discuss your concerns, review relevant medical history, and consider next steps with your physician. An evaluation does not necessarily include a procedure that day.

Preparing for your visit

  • Confirm the appointment time and office location with the practice.
  • Ask which identification, insurance cards, referrals, and records to bring.
  • Prepare an up-to-date list of medicines and allergies.
  • Write down questions and the daily activities you would like to improve.
  • Ask in advance about transportation, language, or accessibility needs.

Procedure preparation is individualized. Ask for specific instructions; do not stop medication or fast unless your treating team directs you to do so.

Insurance information

The supplied practice brochures state that most insurance is accepted and filed. Contact the office and your insurer to confirm network status, referral requirements, prior authorization, and potential out-of-pocket costs before scheduling.
