Before Your First Visit
Secure Communication
After you have scheduled your first appointment, you will receive an email with instructions on how to log into my secure portal, along with a 4-digit PIN. Once you have used your email address or phone number and the PIN, you will want to create your own secure password. This password will enable you to access your records and schedule future appointments on your own.
It will also be your way of viewing and printing invoices and receipts to give insurance for claims (optional), as well as communicate via secure messaging and email via the portal.
After you have set up your password and gained access to the client portal, the system will provide you with the online forms to read and complete at your convenience.
Paperwork
Please complete all required forms, sign them, and read the policies and procedures before coming in for your appointment. This will save time and allow us to make best use of your appointment.
