Cancellations
If you must cancel your appointment, kindly provide 24 hours notice. Your consideration in this matter will allow us to accommodate other patients who could benefit from an appointment. We charge missed appointment and cancelation fees.
Emergencies:
PLEASE DIAL 911 IF YOU BELIEVE YOU NEED IMMEDIATE EMERGENCY CARE! We do not provide emergency care.
Insurances We Accept:
Dr. Kocher accepts insurance; Dr. Simjee does not. We accept insurance through HelloAlma — your insurance company will pay HelloAlma, who will then pay Quintessence Psychiatry. HelloAlma only accepts some insurances — private insurances (not Medicaid) through Aetna, Cigna, Optum, and United. You can check to see if your specific insurance is covered here: https://secure.helloalma.com/check-my-insurance-coverage/
If you would like to pay with your insurance, we will send your information to HelloAlma, who will then contact you to ask for your insurance information. Please fill out HelloAlma’s requested information as soon as you receive their email, as it takes 1-3 days for them to verify your information, so if your appointment is less than 48 hours away, please reschedule it to a later date.
