Visits
Medicare Wellness Visits
If you are a medicare patient, an annual visit is strongly recommended to keep both you and our physicians updated on your current state of health. As a practice that focuses on preventative medicine, we want to assist you in being proactive when it comes to your health. These annual visits are covered in full by your insurance. However, if you have chronic medical conditions that need to be monitored, a follow-up visit will often be combined with your Medicare Wellness.
Annual Visits
If you are a non-medicare patient, we recommend an annual physical, to keep up to date with your health status and any necessary prevention. These annual visits are typically covered in full by your insurance. As with the Medicare Wellness visits, these annual physicals are often combined with a follow-up visit for management of chronic medical conditions.
Nutrition Visits
A nutrition visit can be scheduled with Cyndi Cansler, a Registered and Licensed Dietitian. As part of the Affordable Care Act, almost all commercial insurance now covers nutritional counseling for patients, usually without a copay or deductible. Healthy patients are generally covered as a preventative service. In some cases a diagnosis of diabetes or obesity may be required. Ms. Cansler is credentialed with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, and United Healthcare.
In-House Labs
Every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, we have appointments available for blood draws in office. Unless you were told otherwise, they will likely be doing at least one test that requires FASTING. For these tests, you should not eat anything for 10 hours prior to your appointment. You are, however, encouraged to drink plenty of water prior to the blood draw, and you may have black coffee if you wish. Please call our office if you have any questions regarding your lab appointment.
