Your physician will go over your diagnosis and order any other tests that may be necessary to finalize your diagnosis and set-up a treatment plan.
Depending on the reason for your visit, your physician may order lab work for you which can be done at our office before you leave.
Occasionally, in unusual or complicated situations, we can deliver better care by seeking the opinions of another physician. Thus, your physician may suggest a consultation with another specialist and may refer you to his/her care.
When you arrive for your first treatment you can expect to be given a wealth of information regarding the drugs you will be receiving and their possible side-effects. Your nurse will go through this information with you. It may be helpful to have someone with you.
