Unlike many other medical practices, when you call our office there is no recording to navigate…only real people to take your call, with a real concern for your health and well-being.

After hours or on weekends and holidays, for urgent issues, you can reach your physician by our personal cell phone, email or text message.
Office visits will start promptly, allowing more time to thoroughly address all of your questions and concerns at each visit.
Should you need to be hospitalized at Delray Medical Center, we will admit you to the hospital and in charge of your care while you are in the hospital. For all other hospitals, we will remain involved in your care, continue to advocate on your behalf and communicate regularly with the hospitalist who is providing services.
Comprehensive Annual Health Assessment appointments will be schedule for 60 minutes and all other appointments will be scheduled for approximately 30 minutes.
