New Patients
When a Patient comes to see Dr. Baron, he or she, will be sent an email invitation for a secure and private email portal. Once the Patient registers, Dr. Baron’s office sends the Patient the necessary forms including the Initial Health History and other forms for the Patient to fill out and either email or fax back to Dr. Baron to review before the visit. In the first visit, Dr. Baron, goes over the Initial Health History and the other forms with the Patient, and then performs a comprehensive physical exam and other testing if needed, on the patient. If the patient wishes to have a gynecological exam, it will usually be done on the second visit. At the visit, Dr. Baron, will recommend a plan for the patient. A prescription for fasting lab work will usually be given. For patients who have health insurance, laboratory testing is usually covered by the insurance company. Certain companies require a deductible. Additional Functional Medicine testing might be ordered for the patient. Depending on the insurance coverage, functional medicine testing, is not always covered by health insurers. The patient will return to the office for follow up to review laboratory tests and for further evaluation.
