How do I make an appointment? |
|
To request an appointment with one of our physicians or to schedule tests in the office or hospital, please call our main number (305) 279-4500 and follow the telephone prompts for your physician. If you are a new patient to the practice, you may dial prompt No. 2 for immediate access and information.
Our physicians see patients by appointment from 9:00am until 4:30pm, Monday through Friday. While you may request a specific physician when referred to the practice, you may be seen by other physicians or physician assistants over the course of your treatment. This approach helps team the patient with subspecialists to ensure familiarity with needs specific to each patient's case.
If you feel that you are experiencing a medical urgency, please do not hesitate to call our office, regardless of the day or hour. We have in place a system of physician coverage that ensures that urgent medical needs are met promptly.
When requesting an appointment, the scheduler may ask the following information:
> Your name
> Your date of birth
> Home or alternate phone numbers (work or cell)
> Your primary or referring physician
> Your insurance company or HMO information
