Information |
| Appointments |
|
Office hours are Monday through Friday, from 8:30am
until 5:00p.m.
Appointments are necessary and should be made between
8:30a.m. and 4:30p.m.
If you must cancel an appointment, please call at least
24 hours in advance. On occasion, you may be required
to wait for a time when you are here to see your doctor.
The nature of our practice dictates sophisticated
testing which cannot always be planned in advance.
In addition, there are occasional emergencies. Despite
these factors, we attempt to be punctual, and respect
the time of your appointment.
TO ALL PATIENTS
EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2008
PLEASE ADVISE US OF YOUR NEED TO CANCEL AN APPOINTMENT AT LEAST 6 HOURS PRIOR TO YOUR APPOINTMENT TIME SO THAT WE MAY BETTER SERVE ALL OF OUR PATIENTS.
Effective January 1, 2008, there will be a $25.00 charge if we do not receive at least 6 hours advance notice for a cancelled appointment.
Patient no-shows cause considerable hardship to our practice and patients who could otherwise be seen sooner.
Thank you,
Buffalo Otolaryngology Group, P.C.

You will be requested to answer a few questions. For
new patients, we require your full name, address, day
& evening telephone numbers, employer and insurance
information. Please bring your insurance cards
with you in order that we may keep a copy in your file.
For current patients, we request any updates or
changes to the above-mentioned questions. Minors
must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. The
receptionist will give you a charge slip, which functions
as your itemized statement.
Many of our patients have severe sensitivities to fragrances and their health is affected by the inhaling of scents. Please refrain from wearing heavy colognes or perfumes when visiting our offices.
