When you come for your initial visit, please have your updated insurance information readily available. If you are covered by an HMO, please make sure you have selected a primary care physician (PCP) or clinician so that you may obtain a valid insurance referral.

Please bring your primary care physician's and/or referring physician's name address and telephone number. Please note that referrals and co-payments are expected at the time of service.

If you have questions about obtaining a referral please contact our referral coordinator at 617-355-3602.
