Doctor's Desk

If your child does not have insurance coverage, full payment is expected at the time of service rendered. We do provide payment discounts to our private pay patients provided they are paid in full at the time of service.

Patient Do's and Don'ts

Our practice accepts most private insurances. It is your responsibility to know if your insurance plan has our physicians as participating providers. You are financially responsible for all the charges incurred in your child’s care and treatment which include co-payments, deductibles and other charges not covered by your insurance company. We will file insurance as a courtesy to you. If you have questions about your insurance we will be happy to help. However, specific coverage issues should be directed to your insurance company.
