Why are we using the Patient Portal?
Implementing a patient portal bridges the gap between you and your provider and provides more efficient communication.

The Patient Portal will allow you to request and manage your appointments at your convenience, from the comfort of your home or office. You can submit a request for an appointment or a medication refill 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Once submitted, requests will generally be handled within 1-2 business days, excluding holidays, and weekends. If you have a non-urgent question, you can send us a message through the Patient Portal and we will answer the question as soon as possible. No more holding on the phone lines or waiting for a phone call back!
It’s Safe!
Our patients’ privacy is our number one concern. The Patient Portal is HIPAA compliant and gives secure access to each user so you can feel safe when using it. Each patient creates their own unique password and is asked a security question each time they login for maximum safety. No medical or personal information will be sent to you through your personal e-mail account.
