To speak with a doctor over the phone you must first schedule an appointment. If you do not have an appointment the doctor will not be able to speak with you as they are occupied with other patients.

Question 7

Are you accepting new patients for family medicine?

Accepted Answer

At the moment we are compiling a secondary waiting list for the family medicine practice here at Restore Medical Clinics. To be added to the list please fill out the Family Physician Waitlist registration form below. Please be aware this is not a guarantee that you will be registered with our clinic. In the future, as physicians accept new patient, we will contact the patients on the list in chronological order to set up a meet and greets with the future doctor.

Question 8

My name is on the waitlist. When will I be assigned a family doctor?

Accepted Answer

We want to thank you for your understanding as we navigate this time. Our facility is under construction and not yet ready to accommodate family practice patients. We do not presently have an exact date for the opening of the family practice, but when our clinic is prepared to accommodate all of our family physicians and their new patients we will contact you.

Question 9

What is an FAQ section?

Accepted Answer

An FAQ section can be used to quickly answer common questions about you or your business, such as “Where do you ship to?”, “What are your opening hours?” or “How can I book a service?”
It’s a great way to help people navigate your site and can even boost your site’s SEO.
