Do you see children?
No. We see adults 18 years of age or older.

We are happy to provide our patients with appropriate referrals. However, we require three full business days to process the request.
Do you accept patients in capitated HMO insurance plans?
For Aetna and Keystone HMO’s, we are capitated. For other HMO’s, the capitation may be different, so you will need to verify participation with our office when scheduling your first appointment.

Our doctors do not make rounds at the hospital. You will, however, be seen by the physicians on staff at the hospital.
Is there a provider on-call after hours?

Myself and/or a loved one have complex needs. Can you accommodate us?
Our Care Manager treats patients with a variety of medical and social backgrounds often. The Care Manager provides follow-up and management for patients being discharged from the hospital or emergency department. He/she also assists with coordinating services through referrals and community based resources, and can provide social service assistance to patients in the practice.
