New Patient Information

Welcome to our office and thank you for choosing our practice for your allergy and asthma care.

Your First Visit

The initial visit typically takes 1½-2 hours but may take less time depending on your history and tests which might ordered by our physicians. When you initially arrive, you will be asked to provide picture identification along with your health insurance card.

 

There are several forms which need to be filled out including personal information, HIPPA privacy along with a few others. To save time, download the new patient registration form  and fill it out before you arrive to the office.

After the registration process is completed, the nursing staff will bring you into an examination room where they will check basic vital signs (blood pressure, temperature, height, weight) and then take a brief personal allergy survey.

After the nurse assessment, one of our providers will come in and take a detailed history, perform a relevant physical examination and then order any appropriate diagnostic tests which may include allergy skin testing, breathing test, lab work or x-rays. The allergy skin and breathing tests are performed directly in our office. If lab work or x-rays are necessary, they are typically done at the Beaumont Hospital Campuses after your appointment has been completed. After the testing is complete, the physician will review the results and outline an appropriate treatment plan.
