We often get asked to recommend other health care professionals. We can help you with this at your appointment. |
| |
Generally, though, it may be better for you to contact the referral lines directly. Each health system has a free referral line. When you call, you can talk to a person and ask questions about the doctor’s background, hours, insurances accepted and get more in depth info than we can give you. Use both referral services, you may get a better selection that way.
