We offer a 20% discount on most services. $125 is to be paid at the time of service. Patients will then have 1 week from the date of service to call or come into the office to pay the remaining amount in FULL to receive the 20% discount. We also offer payment plans to keep your medical expenses manageable. As long as you keep your account current, both options will remain open to you.

Referrals/Prior Authorizations
Depending on your insurance, prior authorization may be needed for some tests and/or prescriptions.

Some specialists may request that you see your primary care physician before scheduling you. Our providers will not issue a referral without seeing you first.
