Welcome to Our Office

Insurance Information:

Our insurance coordinators deal with many different insurance companies. Some companies offer many different dental and medical plans. Some companies combine dental and medical coverage. This insurance alphabet soup changes policies and guidelines weekly. At times, it is almost impossible to accurately estimate our patients' insurance co-payment. Many insurance companies will not give out fees until after the treatment is completed.

Dealing with these companies can sometimes be difficult and time consuming. As a courtesy, we ask that you keep us informed of any change to your insurance. It is important that all information about you and your insurance be current.

Patient Billing:

For your convenience we accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express. If you have any problems or questions, please ask our staff team members. They are well informed and up-to-date. They can be reached by phone at (415) 346-5966.

Notice of Privacy Practices:

In our office we maintain the privacy of your health information as a part of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996. We have more information about the Privacy Act in our office. Please ask our staff about it.
