It depends on whether you have Out Of Network coverage and a good insurance policy. Our fixed price is overall priced at a 40% discount to what insurers allow. Patients receive anywhere from no payment if they have limited policies, all the way up to twice our fee from good insurance policies.

No. The Doctor takes care of you, not your insurance company.

This will depend on the medication you are taking as well as when your last office visit was. In general, prescription refills are honored for six months from your last office visit with this office. Good medical judgement and NYS law concur on this time frame. We ask that you call your Pharmacy to make an electronic request for refills for processing. Please allow 24-48 hours of processing prescriptions.

Yes, the Doctor is independent and he cares about you. He has the time, resources, and expertise to diagnose and treat several conditions at each visit. You receive the care you need and deserve.

Children of family members with atypical moles should start being seen at six (6) years of age. The children should have a complete examination including dermatoscopy.
