What To Expect...
When you become a patient of East Coast Family Medicine, your are indeed in good hands. Our provider has 29 years of experience of working with patients from of all ages. We currently accept patient from 3 years old to 103 years young.
We are friendly, professional and easy to work with, and ask the same of our patients. We will never tolerate verbal abuse, swearing at or being rude to the provider. We treat people kindly and expect the same.
Our provider, Amy Pharr, NP is an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse, who is dually certified in Family Medicine and Psychiatry. East Coast Telepsychiatry, our parent company also sees patients for psychiatry in Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, Texas and New York, all via telehealth.
Ms. Pharr can evaluate, diagnose, and provide treatment programs for many of the common issues we all face from day to day. Treatment may or may not include medication prescribing, test ordering, and management as needed and warranted. We DO NOT prescribe benzodiazepines or narcotics under any circumstance. Ms. Pharr can continue medications you are already on, or if needed, prescribe the best medication for your specific condition. Our goal is to not see you very often and to get you on a road to healing and improving!
What You Get During a Visit...
New Patient visits typically last from 10-25 minutes once you get to the provider. This varies depending on the need(s) of each patient we have. We encourage appointments to be made and any paperwork to be completed online to minimize waiting times in the lobby. We try to be prompt with our times and ask all patients to be on time, every time.
Once an appointment is requested, our staff emails all intake forms and ensure they are completed and returned in time. For walk-ins, you can complete the forms on a computer in our office setting, but again we highly encourage appointments if possible.
Once forms are in, our provider has to review everything prior to seeing each patient. She then sees the patient, and regardless of the length of the visit, then has to complete a required “Note” for the visit and send in any prescriptions if applicable.
Regardless of the amount of time you are with us, we always try ensure you always get the proper care you deserve!
