News and Announcements
We’re Making an Epic Change, So Please be Patient with Us.
When you come to the office for your first appointment after October 1st, you will be asked to fill out new demographic and HIPAA paperwork as well as to scan your ID and insurance cards. This will ensure that your information is current and correct in our new Electronic Health Records system Epic. This additional paperwork may extend your check-in time, so we encourage you to complete the registration paperwork that can be found on our website’s Locations page of the office at which you are seen: “New Patient Information Sheet” under Patient Information/Forms/General before your appointment to help speed up this process.
Initially, we must gather more information to enter into the new Epic system from patients when they call, which may result in longer hold times. We apologize if you have been affected by these delays and hope the process will smooth out soon.
The excellent care and service we provide to you is not changing. It is just taking a little longer at first until we are up to speed on the new, more powerful and advanced system.

The purpose of these tests will vary according to the individual patient. Both are used for screening for heart disease, evaluating irregular heart beats, measuring exercise capacity, monitoring blood pressure response to exercise, evaluating the effectiveness of medications, and for objectively following patients with known heart disease. Depending on which test your physician has ordered, here are links to patient instructions and authorization forms for each: Cardiac Stress Test Instructions and Patient Authorization form & Echo Stress Test Instructions and Patient Authorization form.
Are you at risk of heart disease or stroke? Do you smoke, have diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or family history of heart disease? We now offer Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (CIMT) testing to help assess your risk. It is quick, pain-free, and appropriate for patients aged 40-70 years without prior history of coronary artery disease, stroke, or peripheral arterial disease. Cost is $70 (not covered by insurance). Please call us to see if this test is right for you.
