Your first appointment

Your first visit with a physician or medical center is often one preceeded by questions and concerns. These are some logistic matters you should consider before your first appointment:Depending on your health insurance, you may need a referral from your primary care physician in order for your appointment with your cardiologist to be covered. If your insurance does not require a referral, you can call us directly, (603) 650-5724. Please check with your insurance company to determine their policy.
