What to do Before Your First Visit
So, you've scheduled your first visit with me, now what? You're in the right place because I wrote this post especially for you!
There are a few things you can do which will make our time together most productive!
Complete your new patient questionnaires on Charm. There are 3 documents called "questionnaires" which are my new patient paperwork. These documents are best filled out and signed on a desktop computer rather than a phone. The answers to these questions help me get familiar with your case before we meet and allows me to legally treat you. Remember to complete each section as best as you can.
Leave your card information to hold your appointment. To ensure new patients show up for their appointments, I ask that you leave credit card information with my assistant. Please know I have a 24 hour cancellation policy which means if you cancel within 24 hours before your appt you will be charged a late cancellation fee of $50.
Download the Spruce app if this is a telemedicine visit. Spruce is a HIPAA compliant (secure) video app which works on your phone or your computer. Download it to your phone to create an account first. Link to Spruce.
Upload labs from the last 12 months. If you upload the labs to Charm, be sure to also "share to" me so I may see them.
I look forward to meeting you! Please call my office if you have any questions about any of this information or your appointment.
To your health,
Dr. Katie
