Appointments and Cancellations
Patients can schedule an appointment by calling 770-428-4475. Patients are seen by appointment only allowing both more convenience to the patient and opportunity for better care. We make a sincere attempt to adhere to the appointment schedule, but when emergencies and other circumstances arise beyond our control, they must take precedence and some delays may therefore occur. When you arrive at the office for your appointment, please check-in with the front office and provide any updated information since your last visit.
Directions
Contact this location for more information.
Hospitalization

Insurance and Payments
We are committed to meeting your health care needs. Our goal is to keep your insurance or other financial arrangements as simple as possible. Wellstar Medical Group participates in most major insurance plans. For a complete list of insurance participants at this practice please call the practice main line. We will file your insurance for you if we are a participating provider of your plan.

All co-payments are due at the time of service. Please remember to bring your insurance card (HMO, CMO, PPO, etc.) with you to each appointment.
Practice News
Contact this location for more information.
Prescription Refills
It is not our policy to prescribe new medications over the telephone.

Long-term medications may be handled over the phone if you are up to date with follow up appointments and only during regular office hours. Please call your pharmacist with refill requests early to ensure completion of the refill approval process before 3:00 p.m. The pharmacist will contact our office for approvals.

Referrals
If your insurance plan is a plan that requires a referral to be seen by a specialist, we ask that you obtain that referral directly from your primary care physician and bring it with you. This will prevent any appointment rescheduling or delays.

Due to certain managed care requirements, we are unable to request or obtain patient referrals directly from the primary care physicians.
