What can I expect as a new patient?
Upon arrival to your first appointment, our staff will have you fill out a registration form and health history form. We ask that new patients arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled appointment time to complete this paperwork. If you would prefer to fill these forms out online, just contact our office at 432-332-5557 or email us at info@odessamd.com.
Odessa Medical Enterprises aims to be as inclusive as possible, so if you are more comfortable speaking in a language other than English, just let us know. 90% of our staff is bilingual and can speak Spanish fluently.
Can you accommodate patients who only speak Spanish?
Please bring a list of medications that you are currently taking and your health insurance card or a copy of your card. If your insurance requires a co-pay or deductible, please be prepared to pay that at the time of your visit. It is also helpful to write down a list of your medical questions so that Dr. Dar and his team can ensure all of your questions are answered in the exam room.
What do I need to bring to my appointment?
