Only inquiries from patients who we have already seen will receive a response.
Due to a high volume of administrative tasks - we screen all messages and reply to the most urgent messages first. Nonurgent issues (for example, forms, and elective appointments) should receive a response within 5 business days.
Please keep in mind that we cannot confirm appointments over the phone; however, we use an application called MEDEO, and once registered, you can check the status of your appointment online. Link: https://patient.medeohealth.com/
