Appointment Types and Guidance for Staff and Patients
The key is that if someone has long list of problems, Dr. Knight can only handle a maximum of 4 at a time
and that’s in the longest appt type. So people with lots of issues will require multiple appointments.
Please bring your bottles or instructions sheets from pharmacy of all of your medications so we can
make sure they’re correct in our system.
