  • Telephone messages:

    • Please note the exceptional circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 2020, we provide the majority of our services over telephone and videoconference until further notice. Please read our COVID-19 Protocols for more information.

    • We are happy to clarify any pertinent questions arising from an earlier office consultation. However, as we receive over a hundred phone calls during the day, we are unable to address all questions comprehensively. We will try our best to answer your inquiries and help you find a comprehensive source of information, if applicable.

  • Transfer of Records:

    • Patients coming from another practice may be asked to have the previous medical record transferred from their previous doctors. A consent form has to be signed before any transfer can be arranged. Most, if not all doctors,  charge a fee of $50-80 for processing past records. It is important that this fee is paid promptly so there is no delay in the record reaching our office.
