Thank you for visiting my medical practice website.  Here is some information about my medical practice.

- I am a board certified Family Medicine physician, licensed in the states of Washington and California.

- I do NOT provide primary care services, such as physical exams or acute treatment matters.

- I have extensive experience  treating chronic illnesses and infections of many types in men and women.

- If you have an urgent medical issue, please call your primary care physician, or visit your nearest urgent care center. 
- For medical emergencies, please all 911.  

- I do not bill any insurance or Medicare due to the practice model that I am following.  This enables my practice  to remain small and provide more personal service.  I provide all the necessary billing information so that you may bill your insurance carrier.  In many cases, you will be reimbursed for up 75% of the office visit charges.   Please check with your insurance carrier for their policies on reimbursements for "out of network providers".
- Your laboratory testing is, in most cases, covered by medicare and insurance.  Please check with your carrier for their policies regarding out of network providers ordering blood tests.

- At this time, I do not have any support staff, and therefore, I personally attend to all matters pertaining to the management of your care, from returning phone calls to dealing with prescriptions.
- Please allow 24 hours for prescription refills.
- I do allow e-mail communication for your convenience.
