New Patients

If you are a new patient, please call our office (256-737-8030) first to see which physicians are accepting new patients.

Same Day Appointments

When at all possible it is best to schedule your appointment in advance with your physician. We understand that situations present themselves where it is best to see a physician the very same day. For this reason we offer same day appointments with most of our nurse practitioners and allow walk-ins patients from 8am-11am and 1pm-3pm. For your convenience and to minimize your wait time, please try calling our office first.

Preparation for your Appointment

For your appointment, it is best to arrive 10 or 15 minutes early to check in with the front office and update your account information. Also, be sure to have a list of any current medications you are on and the reason for visit. Depending on the type of appointment scheduled, you may have other preparations.
