Our office has established procedures that maintain quality care and reasonable cost for our patients. Charges for your consultation, x-rays, and any other diagnostic aids obtained during your first appointment, are due at that time. If your surgery is not covered by insurance, or if you desire to have your consultation and treatment performed on the same day (i.e., emergency patients), we will require payment in full by cash, credit card, or cashier's check at the time of surgery. For your convenience, we accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and Care Credit. We will be happy to discuss these terms with you during your visit. The fees quoted are an estimate only. If the procedure proves to be more complex than anticipated, the fees will be adjusted accordingly. The stated fees will be honored for a period of six months.
