I have read "Understanding the Healing Crisis", and I fully understand that holistic medicine works differently than conventional medicine.



FINANCIAL: I understand that Garrett Ezell DC PC is only in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, and not BCBS supplementary Medicare plans, nor any other insurance companies. If I have insurance that covers "Out of Network Providers", I can be provided with a coded receipt, called a "super-bill" so that I can submit a claim to my insurance on my own, or the doctors can submit that claim for me. I also, understand that if I do not have insurance, or I am in need of services that are not covered by my insurance, that it is my responsibility to pay for those at the time they are rendered.



INSURANCE: I am a BCBS PPO member.



RESPONSIBILITY: I understand that Dr. Porto and Dr. Ezell work together on each patient without exception. And that I am to take responsibility for my health by complying to at least 5 weeks of diet and lifestyle modification instead of solely relying on in office treatment alone. Diet modification may include supplements, protein and essential fats which are derived from both animal & vegetable sources.



EXPECTATION: I understand that not all conditions are "curable" in 1 treatment visit. Some conditions are complex and chronic in nature, and may require months or even years to completely reverse.



COMMUNICATION: I understand that Dr. Porto and Dr. Ezell usually respond to messages within 24 hrs, and that if I have not received a response within 24-48 hrs either the doctors response was filtered into my "spam/junk/trash" folder, the email address I provided was incorrect, my inbox was full, or I failed to check off the "I am human" box and follow the pop-up prompt before sending and the doctors never received my message. To ensure that I see the doctors response in a timely manner, I have saved "kp1111ge@gmail.com" to my email address book.



CAPTCHA & CLICK HERE TO SEND: You must click on the box beside "I am human" before the "Click here to Send" button or the doctors will not receive your message. This is an important security feature. You may need to disable your pop-up blocker.
