Your telephone call is important to us. The following information should be given when calling the clinic to assist the staff in expediting a resolution for you: Your name, Telephone Number, Date of Birth, Physician’s Name, and Purpose of the call.
The nurse that takes your call will talk with your physician concerning your problem and will return your call; unless, the physician thinks a direct conversation is needed regarding your question.
