New Computer System

Our office is moving towards electronic medical records (EMR). Our first step was to change the system we use for appointments and billing. Change is never easy so please be patient with our staff. We have to update your address and insurance information for the new system. The new system comes with this nifty insurance card scanner that electronically attaches your card to your account. No more photocopying! The trees are smiling!
