New Patients & Referrals
To make a New Patient appointment we must receive several things:
1. The NEW PATIENT FORMS on the tab below. (Please also read the HIPAA NOTICE OF PRIVACY PRACTICES, FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES AGREEMENT before signing the NEW PATIENT FORMS.)
2. A professional referral from another psychiatrist, primary care provider or counselor.
3. A copy of your drivers license and insurance card.
Our office will not be able to schedule an appointment until we receive ALL of the information listed above.
Physician Referrals
All new patients will require a professional referral form from a physician or counselor. They may use our referral form below or their own.

We are currently accepting new patients, contingent on in-network insurance coverage. We are not in network with Alliant, Beacon, Wellcare or Value Options and are not accepting new patients with Medicare, Medicaid, or Ambetter at this time.
All new patient appointments will require a $100 appointment deposit that will be applied to your copay, deductible, or coinsurance at your first and second visit. Any balance leftover from the appointment deposit will be refunded after insurance has completed processing for your second visit.
To avoid late cancellation fee, appointments must be cancelled prior to 48 hours before appointment. The no show/late cancellation charge for new patients is $100. The no show/late cancellation charge for existing patients is $50.
Patients with no insurance can self-pay at the time of the appointment but will still be required to pay the new patient deposit. Self-pay rates for new patient appointments are approximately $300 for our MD Psychiatrists and $250 for our psychiatric nurse practitioners.
Self pay follow-up visits are approximately $250 for our MD Psychiatrists and $200 for our psychiatric nurse practitioners.
We are not forensic psychiatrists and do not consider ourselves to be experts in the court setting. If legal consultation is necessary, then our consultation services are billed at $900 per hour in half-hour increments (1 hour minimum).
