We do not accept or work with
insurance plans for reimbursement.

Seeking treatment with an “out of network” provider or specialist such as myself in private practice is a personal choice. Only you can make that decision. It has to work for you. I encourage you to review your out-of-network benefits if available, and treatment costs with your insurance carrier. Some insurances may provide some out-of-network benefits. You will need to research this on your own. We can provide you with paid invoices you can directly submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
