What to Expect as a New Client
New Client Consultation:
During your New Client Consultation appointment, you will have an opportunity to ask any questions, and discuss you health concerns and goals in as much detail as you like.
After Dr. Powers has a clear picture of your health and medical history, and of what you hope to gain from his care, he will share how he can best help you, and clarify what examination or testing may be necessary to properly and adequately evaluate your condition.
The New Client Consultation appointment is usually 45 minutes, and cost $150.(see Time of Service Discount)
Note: Out-of-town appointments and clients with more complex and long-standing conditions usually require a more in-depth investigation, and as a result, more of the doctor's time. Fees are adjusted reflective of actual time spent with you in consultation. (Payment options)
Evaluation:
The next step is to proceed is to schedule your Evaluation appointment for testing and/or examination, normally within the week, if available. The specific tests recommended are based on your need, though options are provided based on your means and on what feels feasible for you.
Fees for the Evaluation appointment are based on the specific testing prescribed by Dr. Powers, as discussed with you during your initial consultation.
Note: All testing usually occurs at Dr. Powers' office. However, there are options for testing for Out-of-town clients. Dr. Powers will discuss this during your Initial Consultation.
Report of Findings:
Upon completion of your evaluation, a Report of Findings appointment will be scheduled to review the results of your evaluation. At this appointment, Dr. Powers will also make his recommendations and outline your Program of Care (and associated fees). (We highly recommend that you bring your spouse, significant other, or closest friend to this appointment.)
The fee for your Report of Findings appointment is based on the time required to do so, which is directly related to the complexity of the condition.
Most Report of Findings visits require 60 minutes, and cost $190. (Your fee will be discussed at your New Client Consultation appointment.) (Payment options)
