We are located on the second floor of the St. Elizabeth Medical Plaza, 575 South 70th Street, Suite 200.  The plaza is located between the parking garage and St. Elizabeth Hospital.

The entire second floor of the parking garage is designated for our patients. You can walk directly into our clinic if you park on the second floor of the garage.

You will be asked to electronically complete a patient information and medical history form. Please bring your copay (if applicable), current insurance card, any worker’s compensation or liability insurance information, a referral from your primary care physician (if applicable), medication list, and any appropriate x-rays or scans previously done (bring the actual scan not just the paper report). If you do not have insurance you will be required to pay a $100 deposit at every visit.

Please arrive 30 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time to complete the electronic paperwork.

Your appointment allows time to address one priority problem.  Your anticipated wait time may be longer than a general practitioner’s office because we are a specialty office. The length of your visit depends on the complexity of your case as well as the complexity of others that are being seen that same day. Expect to spend one to three hours in the office on your initial visit.

If you need copies of your medical records, please call our main number, 402-488-3322 and ask for our Medical Records department.

You will need to bring your worker’s compensation or third party liability insurance company’s name, address, your claim number, and an adjustor or contact person’s name and phone number (if applicable).
