Emergencies: In case of a medical emergency call 911 or go directly to the nearest emergency room.
Lab fees: The Anti-Aging & Family Wellness Group believes that a proactive approach to healthcare is the best medicine for prevention of illness. There are several tests that your insurance carrier may not deem medically necessary and therefore will not reimburse. If you do not have medical insurance, there are some local providers that do provide discounts for cash payments. Please call our office for more information. 631.377.3575.
Lab results: We will only call you with the results of blood tests or other labs if they contain critical values that need immediate attention. Otherwise, we will discuss lab results during your next doctor visit. make sure to book a follow up appointment whenever you have blood drawn or any other lab procedure performed. You will not be able to get results without consulting with the doctor.
Consultations with the doctor: Consultations can either be in person or on the telephone.
Request for medical records: Each time you see the doctor you will be provided with a printed or digital copy of your lab records. If additional records are requested by you or by an authorized third party such as another doctor’s office or insurance provider, you will be required to pay the Anti-Aging & Family Wellness Group a minimum fee of $20 plus a $.50 per page fee for reproduction of any part of your chart requested, only if authorized by the patient.
Changing or cancelling appointments: Please let us know as early as possible if you need to change your doctor’s appointment. We regret that we must charge for missed or changed appointments unless we are given one full business day’s notice (business days are Monday to Thursday).

Renewal of medications: Unless you schedule a follow-up visit every six months, we cannot renew your prescription. Renewal of medication should be done well in advance.
