In order
to avoid long waits in the office, we see patients by appointment only.
Same day service is available for urgent problems. Call us and you
will be seen today.
To schedule a regular
appointment please call our office between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.,
Monday through
Friday.
Please arrive on time for your appointment. If you have forms to
fill out, an earlier arrival is advised.
We make every
effort to see our patients at the scheduled time. However, delays
are sometimes unavoidable due to a variety of reasons
- medical emergencies, unanticipated problems with other patients,
etc. If you are one with such needs you can rest assured that you
will receive all the time and care you need.
If you are unable
to keep your regularly scheduled appointment please call us at
the earliest (at least 24 hours before your scheduled visit). We
will do our best to reschedule your appointment at the next available
time-slot convenient to you.
We are
always available to you.
A doctor is available for you 24 hours-per-day, 7 days a week.
Please make non-emergency calls during regular office hours.
Routine, call-in
prescriptions (such as renewal of birth control pills) are done
only during office hours for obvious reasons. Your medical records
are not available to our doctors during off hours and we wish to
avoid prescription errors.
When you call,
our staff will take a message and a doctor or the PA will return
your call at the earliest possible time. Sometimes this may be
after
office hours. Please leave all your contact phone numbers for the
different times of the day
Emergency Care.
We provide 24-hour on-call service in the event of an emergency.
After hours, please call our main office at (845) 896 9864.
During office
hours your call will be answered by our office staff. After hours an answering service will convey your message to one
of our doctors who will call you back. Sometimes the doctor may be
busy with another medical emergency and may not be able to return
your call immediately. In this event, and if you cannot wait please
proceed to the emergency room at Vassar Brothers Medical Center.
Our doctor will meet you there.
