After Hours Emergencies
If you have an urgent matter after hours and need to speak to the physician on call, please call the main office number 504-779-8282 and our on-call service will assist you. A live operator will answer your call and page the physician.
If you experience a life-threatening emergency, PLEASE DIAL 9-1-1 IMMEDIATELY.
Referrals
Some insurances may require a referral for your visit to our office. Please make sure to contact your insurance company and/or your primary care physician to ensure that you do get a referral if it is required. Failure to obtain a referral, when necessary, may cause your insurance company to deny your claim.
If necessary, we will obtain authorization for testing scheduled by our office.
Medical Records
A medical release waiver must be signed in order to obtain a copy of your medical records or to have them sent to another health care provider. If you are requesting that your records be sent to another provider we ask that you supply us with their name, address, and phone number.
Prescription Refills
We prefer to refill your medications at the time of your office visit. Please bring your medication list with you to each appointment. Prescription re-fill requests will be filled same day as request. Chronic or long-term medication refills require an office visit before they may be refilled.
