We ask our patients to complete a new patient information sheet on their first visit. The sheet will be provided in the office! New Patient Information Form (PDF)
Although many patients are referred by physicians, it is not necessary to have a referral. When patients are referred, a helpful note is sent to the physician.
As of February 2024, the basic cost of an office visit is $60.00. While our office does not do direct billing, patients will receive a receipt sufficient for submitting to their insurance company, or for tax purposes.
A $20.00 booking fee may be charged for new patients. This will be credited as part of the visit fee for the first appointment.

Anyone can! The majority of patients choose a podiatrist for:
Home visits are considered for housebound, frail, or disabled patients. There is additional cost.
The direction of the discussion and examination depends on the patient's chief complaint, but our aim is to be thorough and conscientious. For instance, a heel problem appointment will often include a postural biomechanical assessment as well as evaluation of footwear.
A blister or corn on the fifth toe will require consideration of vascular, neurologic, orthopedic and footwear causes.
A first visit often takes 30 or 40 minutes.
