If the federal government is closed or delayed, our office will typically also be closed or delayed. Patients who have appointments scheduled will be notified directly of our plans and details will be posted on our website.

We are accustomed to meeting the needs of patients who are concerned about privacy. Most patients who are concerned about privacy request telehealth sessions but we also have a private entrance and exit, avoiding the need to pass through the waiting room entirely. When necessary, home visits may be arranged.

The confidentiality of our patient’s medical and psychiatric histories and records is of the utmost importance to us. Our staff and providers are HIPAA-compliant, and our software is encrypted. We do not engage in partnerships with insurance companies or Medicare; therefore we will not disclose any personal or medical information to anyone without your written consent. Our policy is to obtain our  patients’ written consent before we release your health record even if an outside consent has been sent. 

Please note: prior authorizations for medications often require our staff to communicate with your insurance company or pharmacy for approval. In this situation, we will accept the authorization you’ve signed with your insurance company. 

We are out-of-network providers. Therefore, we do not accept direct payments from insurance companies, and you will be required to pay in full for services rendered. To receive a reimbursement from your insurance company, file your claim and accept your carrier’s reimbursement directly. Your superbill will be automatically emailed to you on the 3rd day of each month, or you can contact our office for a copy.

If you are having difficulty with this process, your employer or benefits manager may be able to assist you.

We apologize, but we are not legally allowed to care for patients on Medicare or Medicaid.

Because your physician may be out of the office and away from her records, prescription refill processing requires a 4-business-day turnaround time. Refill requests on Fridays will not be filled until the following week so please let us know when you have a week left on your medications.

The Best way to contact our office is to call directly at 301-881-9464 or text us at 301-450-5335.
