Office visits are routinely scheduled by
appointment. As a new patient, you will be asked to furnish
information over the phone in order to reduce the amount of
paperwork to be completed. At the time of your appointment, it is
requested you bring a list of your current medications, your most
current pair of glasses and your insurance cards. If you wear
contacts, please wear them to your appointment unless instructed not
to by a technician. Please allow one and a half hours for your
initial visit or any other dilated exam. We know your time is
valuable, and we will make every effort to see you at your appointed
time. If you are unable to keep an appointment, please call to
reschedule for a more convenient time.
Our office hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday
through Friday. Special Saturday hours 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. During these hours, all incoming calls are answered
by our office staff. Non-urgent calls
placed in the morning usually
are returned by a technician before lunch. Afternoon calls are
usually returned prior to the close of the office. Please describe
fully the nature of your medical problem or request so we may handle
your call in the most appropriate manner. After business hours phone
calls are handled by our answering service. Your call will be
returned by Dr. Boland or the physician on call.
