You are strongly encouraged to call and speak with our friendly and skilled staff to discuss any questions regarding coverage or payment.

As a courtesy, we will bill your insurance if we are a participating provider. Patients are responsible for all balances, including deductibles not covered by insurance. Applicable co-payments are collected at the time of your appointment, and are payable by cash, check, or major credit card. We will gladly accept VISA, MasterCard, and Discover.
