We are happy to complete any forms needed for school, camp, sports or other activities.

If the patient has a current Annual Well Exam on file, the form can be submitted to our office via mail, fax or dropped off in person. Due to the high volume of forms we receive, please allow 48 hours from time of receipt to return the form to you. Please read all forms before submitting them to be sure your child has had an exam within the required time. We will not falsify dates. All portions of the parent and student sections must be filled out completely by the parent and/or patient before a provider will fill out any form. All forms need to include instructions as to where to send the forms once completed, along with a self-addressed stamped envelope if they are to be mailed. We do not email forms.
