Your rights and protections against surprise medical bills

Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure.

Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Dr May took the time to answer concerns and explain concepts with MRI imagery making it very clear after confiding with surgeons that it was not an option. His assistant was also very insightful in answering my questions.

I was absolutely pleased and impressed with Dr. May. He was a consummate professional but with kindness and what seemed like genuine interest and patience with my attempt at describing my situation. He was accompanied by the assistant that checked me in and another colleague when he administered the steroid Injection and I experienced almost no pain at all. He explained what to expect and gave recommendations for next step. It was a perfect experience!

I previously seen another provider within your system and had an extremely bad experience. So naturally I was a little worried. Dr. May was the complete opposite of the other doctor I had seen. He listened to my concerns, did a proper exam, had good bed side manner, and returned my call fast about my results.

With this being our first time dealing with an injury of this nature we were scared on how things would go. They made our visit comfortable and made us feel at ease. Dr May explained everything so well and even treated us as If he had known us his whole life. Definitely a great experience
