While other offices may have a policy to arrive 15 or 20 minutes before your appointment time, our goal is simplicity and efficiency. Merely come to the office at your appointment time. Since we ask for your insurance ID number when you make your appointment (sometimes called subscriber ID or member number), checking in is quick and efficient.
