​
How do I reach my provider after hours or over a weekend/holiday?
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, you should call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. For medical concerns that cannot wait until the next business day, you can reach the on-call physician voicemail at 703-478-0440 and the on-call physician will be in contact with you as soon as possible. Please note that our on-call service is for true medical concerns only. Routine questions should not be left on our on-call voicemail service and should be relayed during regular business hours.

What should I bring to my first appointment?
Prior to your first appointment, you may sign up for our Patient Portal and complete the New Patient Paperwork online. You may also print out the paperwork for completion via our Patient Forms page. For your first appointment, please arrive at least 20 minutes prior to your appointment time to allow for the check-in process. Be sure to bring your insurance card, valid photo ID, list of current medications, previous medical records pertaining to your condition, and referral and/or testing order if needed. Please note that if you are referred for diagnostic testing only, we will not be able to complete the test without the testing order. For your follow-up appointment, please arrive 15 minutes prior to scheduled appointment time. As before, you will be required to show a valid ID and insurance card.
​
What am I expected to pay at my appointments?
We collect co-pays and outstanding balances at the time of service. If you have a co-insurance, deductible, or are unable to pay at the time of service, you will be billed for services rendered. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, exact cash, and checks.

Do you have a wait list?
We do not have a wait list. If you would like to be seen sooner than your scheduled date, we recommend calling the office to inquire about possible cancellations.
​
Can I get an urgent appointment if I need to be seen today?
We cannot accommodate same-day appointments as we do not provide acute or emergent care. If you need to be seen urgently, we recommend reaching out to your primary care provider or going to your nearest emergency room.

What ages do you treat?
We are an adult neurology practice. We do not see patients under the age of 16.
