  • Patient Partnership Plan

  • Dear Patient:

    Welcome to our practice. We intend to provide you with the care and service that you expect and deserve. Achieving you best possible health requires a “partnership” between you and your doctor. As our ‘partner in health” we ask you to help us in the following ways:

    Keep Follow-up Appointments and Reschedule Missed Appointments
    I understand that my doctor will want to know how my condition progresses after I leave the office. Returning to my doctor on time gives him the chance to check my condition and my response to treatment. During a followup appointment, my doctor might order tests, refer me to a specialist, prescribe medication, or even discover and treat a serious health condition. I will make every effort to reschedule missed appointments as soon as possible.

    Call the Office When I Do Not Hear the Results of Lab and Other Tests
    I understand that my physician’s goal is to report my lab and test results to me as soon as possible. However, if I do not hear from my physician’s office within the time specified, I will call the office for my test results.

    Inform My Doctor If I Decide Not to Follow His or Her Recommended Treatment Plan
    I understand that after examining me, my doctor may make certain recommendations based on what her feels is best for my health. This might include prescribing medication, referring me to a specialist, or ordering labs and tests, or even asking me to return to the office within a certain period of time. I understand that not following my treatment plan can have serious negative effects on my health. I will let my doctor know whenever I decide not to follow his or her recommendations so that he may fully inform me of any risks associated with my decision to delay or refuse treatment.
