How is a visit to Future Medicine Now different from typical encounters with a primary care physician? When we started counting the many ways, we decided to make a list. What follows are the most obvious contrasts. We hope you recognize and value these distinctions during your visit. We've created them just for you.

• Little or no waiting — Your appointment time is when you can expect to be seen by your doctor, not 20 minutes or 2 hours later. We value your time and respect our commitments.
• No cold, assembly line treatment — You are regarded and treated as family, not a numbered piece of meat, passing through our ‘system’.
• Warm and comfortable, welcoming environment &mdash What more can we say?
• State-of-the-art Electronic Medical Records — All of your visit notes and records are safely stored on our server, and are HIPPA compliant. This makes paper work (including yours) almost a thing of the past. Records may be easily transmitted to you or another physician. This also means speedier ‘desk time’ for you.
• Coordinated, consistent care — Because records are electronic, your information may be shared with doctors in the office to assure consistent care.
• Test results are available electronically — Upon your approval, test results may be emailed to you.
• Email consultations — With your consent, email can speed up and facilitate information transfer between you and your doctor. This can be an immense time saver for all involved.
• Comprehensive care — Oriental medicine must look at the entire person in order to do its job well. You won’t have three or five physicians working on various parts, having no idea what the other is doing.
