Our extensive library of patient literature is available to you. This library is continually updated and contains articles on a wide variety of health topics.
Diagnostic Services
Among the diagnostic procedures we are equipped to do are the following: electrocardiograms, pap smears (to check for cervical cancer). We perform urinalyses, urine cultures, throat cultures, hemoglobin tests (for detection of anemia), blood glucose tests, pregnancy tests, stool occult blood tests and other selected tests. Most laboratory results are available the next day, by computer
Minor Surgery
We offer you a wide range of services in office surgery and skin care. Removal of warts and repair of lacerations are among the procedures we do in the office. Freezing of skin lesions (cryocautery) is available.
Referrals
We are able to meet nearly all your health needs; but in situations where referral to a specialist is desirable we will be pleased to help you select a well qualified specialist. When you conclude your treatment, the consulting physician will send us all necessary medical information for your records.
Electronic Medical Records
As we strive to implement new ways to improve your care and improve our efficiency, we have decided to use and electronic health record technology. We think you will see the following: Faster refills on prescriptions. Our orders are transmitted directly to your pharmacy (no more doctor’s handwriting!) Newer and better ways to see if you are up to date with preventive health care. Easier and faster scheduling of appointments and consultations with specialists. Fewer questions from insurance companies due to more sophisticated claims submissions. Respect for your privacy, and security for your medical information. Our electronic health record system is protected by state-of-the-art firewalls and encryption. We enter your visits directly into a computer. We hope this will not be distracting to you as we see you in the examination room. We will be glad to show you how it all works.
