Frequently asked questions:

What should I bring with me when I come for a scheduled office appointment?

• Medicare and insurance cards
• Driver's License or a valid ID
• Referral letter (if required)

• List of medications (if any)

Are my medical records kept private and confidential?

Your medical file is handled with the utmost respect for your privacy. Our staff is bound by strict confidentiality requirements regarding your medical records. We will not release the contents of your medical file without your consent.

Do I need a referral to make an appointment?

Many insurance and Medicare policies require a referral to see a specialist.  Most medical specialists will accept only referred patients. This is partly to try to ensure that the specialist you are seeing is appropriate for you and your condition.  

How can my family doctor help me to obtain specialist medical care?

Before seeing any medical specialist, it is always preferable to talk to your own family doctor, who can discuss your condition with you and advice on whether any specialist care is appropriate. If it is, he or she can help you to choose the specialist best suited to your needs. Your family doctor can help the specialist to care for you better by providing relevant information about your health. Communicating with the specialist will also enable your family doctor to care for you better during and after your specialist treatment.

What should I expect during my first visit?

During your initial visit, your physician will get to know you and your specific needs. If a test or procedure is needed or desired, the doctor will help you visualize the results and go over the risks. They may perform a physical examination and ask you a number of questions which will help them determine a diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.
