Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA)

Use your pre-tax dollars to pay for treatment, we will provide you with the necessary documentation for reimbursement.

Low Down Payment Options

Discounts and Special Offers

We have family treatment discounts and paid-in-full discounts. We also offer referral discounts (for both the patient that refers as well as the new patient). Ask us during your consultation for more information about how we can make your treatment more affordable.

“From the beginning we went over all of the options I had, including pricing so that we could be flexible to my budget. He also had a great offer in terms of discounts if paid in full upfront, which was so perfect for my situation!”
