Appointment Policy
We prefer that all patients be seen by appointment, although we are flexible and will try to accommodate our patients’ needs. We are open week days, and are usually open late (until 6:30) on Mondays, and open early (7:30 am) two to three times a week.  When Dr. Moghissi is not in the office, staff will generally be answering the phone in the mornings.

After Hours Coverage
When the office is closed, Dr. Moghissi carries her cell phone to handle emergencies. When she is on vacation, or on weekends, another local family practitioner may be covering for her. If you have an emergency that requires a doctor’s advice, please call the office to get the number for the doctor on call.

Communication with the Doctor
Dr. Moghissi notifies her patients of all test results, even if normal. She often sends those results via email, (or we can call with the results). Patients are welcome to communicate back and ask questions of the doctor via email also. If she feels that the problem is too complicated to take care of via email, she will ask you to come in for an office visit.

We participate with most insurance plans. Click here for a list of insurers or call us with your specific questions. We accept payment in the form of cash, check, MC, VISA or Discover. Payment for the office visit and/or copay is expected at the time of service. Please bring insurance information (including your insurance card) to each visit.
