No Surprises (Except for How Focused We Are on You)
What to Bring
Please fill out the patient and
insurance information forms and bring them with you, as this will save time
at your appointment. Bring any currently prescribed allergy, asthma or eczema medications.
What to Do
If you are on an antihistamine (Allegra, Benadryl/diphenhydramine, Claritin/loratadine,
Zyrtec/cetirizine or other) try not to use those for at least 7 days prior to the
appointment. If you are unable to hold or advised not to hold by your doctor that
is fine, but this may delay the performance of allergy skin testing.
What to Look For
You will be greeted at the front desk by one of our administrative staff, who will
review your new patient paperwork as well as ask for copies of your insurance card
and driver license. You will then meet one of our medical staff who will take you
to an exam room to obtain more information about your visit.
Dr. Meiser will then discuss your medical history, perform an exam, and will make recommendations
for testing (allergy, respiratory or other). The test results (if done at the visit)
will be reviewed with you and then a medical plan will be customized to best treat
your condition. A typical new patient visit can vary from 1 to 3 hours (or rarely
more).
