Appointments/Office Hours

To schedule an appointment, please call our office at 610-838-1010. Please let us know your name and the reason for your call so we can schedule an appropriate amount of time for your care. For your convenience, we see patients at the above times.

Telephone Calls to the Office

We welcome your phone calls and encourage you to call the office if you have questions or concerns. If you call the office with a question, we will take a message for the doctors and have them call you back during a break in the schedule or at the end of office hours. This allows the doctors uninterrupted time with all patients.

Insurances/Referrals

As your primary care office, we will coordinate all of your medical care. Please consult our office whenever you have questions about your health – we will be able to guide you regarding appropriate medical treatment. When medically necessary, we will refer you to a specialist for treatment. We will also help you select the proper specialist and continue to coordinate your care with the consulting doctor. Many times, follow-up care can be provided through our office. However, if it is medically necessary for continuing care to be provided by a specialist, we will help arrange this for you.

Unless your insurance plan allows you to go directly to a specialist, if you access specialty care without a prior written referral, you will be responsible for the bill associated with the care. We are not able to issue retroactive referrals for care already rendered. If you have any questions regarding referrals, please call our office. We will be happy to help you. Our office accepts most insurances, including a number of managed care plans (HMOs). Please check our office for a full list of the plans in which we participate.

Emergencies

A physician is available for emergencies 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week, including holidays, by calling the office. When the office is closed, our answering service will put you in touch with a physician. If you believe any delay in medical attention could result in a life-threatening situation, please go immediately to the nearest emergency room for treatment and notify our office as soon as you are able.
