Finding the right health care provider can be a long process, especially when it comes to choosing one that accepts your healthcare coverage. Healthcare Leadership Council writes that “more doctors are reducing their dependence on Medicare…At the same time, the Medicare population is growing because of the retirement of baby boomers now and over the next couple of decades.” That is why we are proud to accept Medicare.  Our team has over 20 years of combined experience in the medical profession.
