Refer a Patient
As a specialty practice, to be seen in our clinic all patients must be referred from a physician, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner. This helps ensure that all patients who see us will benefit from the visit.

Before placing a referral, please review our “who we care for” page which outlines the conditions we are able to best care for.
