In order to be able to do the best job we can, our practice will have to have limits on the number of patients we care for. We wish we could take care of everyone, but we also understand our own limitations.

We are aware of the feeling that children must see a Pediatrician. Family Physicians are also trained in the care of children, in addition to adults, seniors, delivering babies, etc.. We feel it is an advantage to care for the whole family rather than limit ourselves to certain ages.

If you are considering becoming a patient, please read the following and see if you agree:

Our Philosophy, a few points:

Minor problems can be more than they seem, or not-so-minor in someone with multiple medical problems. For that reason, we cannot prescribe medication or treat new problems without the necessary evaluation in the office. Please schedule an appointment for treatment or recommendation s for any new problem.

We do our best to accomodate same-day appointments. We have reserved time in our appointment times that cannot be scheduled before that day. We do have limited time, so call as early as possible. We will see your sick child that same day if they are already our patient.

We strongly emphasize Prevention and Wellness, and recommend routine physicals for all patients to make plans on how to stay healthy.

We require regular visits if you take medications for certain problems such as: high cholesterol, high blood pressure, etc.

Please see the following section regarding instructions for our patients.
