Information About Your Visit

We are committed to help everyone in need of our services. Our staff is available to assist you with any questions or concerns.

Office hours: 8:00a.m. to 5:00p.m.

We ask those who are visiting us for the first time, to please arrive 10 minutes earlier for registration and to fill out a health questionnaire.

During each visit:
- Your eyes will be dilated.
- You may wish to bring someone who can drive for you.
- You can either bring your own sun glasses or we can provide you with eye shades.

Your time is important to us. Our staff will work to make sure you are seen in a timely manner and that any tests or procedures necessary are completed in a reasonable time. Because we want to ensure that you receive all the care during your visit, your visit can take anywhere from one to three hours depending on what the physician feels is needed for you and your eye needs. The additional time may be necessary for certain eye diseases or symptoms. The physician may order special pictures of the retina or will need to perform procedures that require some time to complete.

Fees and Insurance

Our staff can assist you with any questions regarding Medicare; private insurance or managed care plans; or other account information.

We are participating providers for Medicare, Medicaid, and most managed care plans. You can contact our office or your insurance provider to verify our participation with your specific insurance and if your insurance requires a referral. Many insurance companies and HMO's require that you get written authorization from your Primary Care Provider (PCP) prior to your visit. We ask that you complete this process prior to your visit.

Please be sure to bring your insurance information with you.

To cancel an appointment
We understand that unpredictable situations can arise and appointments may need cancelled. If you are unable to keep your appointment, we ask that you kindly call during business hours and provide us with 48 hours notice.
