Office Visits
Please see the list of our common fees for the practice. We are currently (out-of-network) not accepting commercial insurance and are not a Medicare or Medicaid provider. We are able to issue a "Superbill" which can be submitted to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. This is up to you. Please check with your insurance company. Our decision to not accept insurance is a difficult one and is based primarily on the cost of this to both us and our patients. At this time, we feel as though we can offer competitive (lower) rates by bypassing insurance. We do realize that this may be difficult for some clients and we are willing to offer a sliding scale on a limited basis. Please discuss your particular circumstances with our staff.
