Before Your First Visit

If you’re a new patient, these tips can help you make the most of your visit while saving time.

How to Prepare for a Visit

For your first visit you will want to arrive 30 minutes early in order to allow for enough time to fill out the new patient paperwork.

You can download and fill out these documents to facilitate your first check. Patient Information | Patient Intake form | Current Medications list, Lista de Medicamentos (ES) | Child Health Questionnaire

Please bring your insurance card to your first visit at the clinic and be sure to let us know when your insurance provider changes. Please also bring a list of your medications or bring the bottles if that is easier.

If there is anyone else in your life who you believe could offer important information to your provider during your visit, please feel free to bring them along. If you want anyone else, a family member or another healthcare provider or therapist, to be able to communicate with your provider please be sure to sign a Release of Information (ROI) today.

The ROI tells us you’re okay with us communicating with these particular people about your care. You are free to revoke that ROI at any time.

If you are being prescribed any controlled substances such as medications such as Adderall, we will require records prior to your appointment. This can cause delays and therefore having these records in advance would help expedite the process. Continuation of these medications would be at the discretion of the prescriber and receiving records is not a guarantee for refills. We will not continue any opiates or benzodiazepines for chronic pain management or anxiety including but not limited to tramadol (Ultram), codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, lorazepam, clonazepam, etc.
