Fill Out the New Adult Patient Screening Form

NEW ADULT PATIENTS:

  • Complete and submit the screening form electronically; do not print and bring it. USE A COMPUTER FOR BEST RESULTS. You may not be able to complete the form on a mobile device, like a phone.

  • You can access the screening form by choosing any date on the form. THIS IS NOT YOUR APPOINTMENT, IT IS JUST A PLACE HOLDER.

  • The date you choose **** WILL NOT BE YOUR ACTUAL APPOINTMENT, DO NOT SHOW UP EXPECTING AN APPOINTMENT ON THAT DAY *****.

    As you go through the onboarding process with the New Patient Coordinator, he will help you schedule your actual appointment. Once scheduled you will get a text and a phone call asking you to confirm that appointment prior to arrival. Your text will look something like this:

  • Once you confirm your appointment, you will get another text that looks something like this:


  • If you do not receive a text or phone call then you do not have an appointment scheduled yet. If you do not receive the confirmation text, your appointment is not confirmed. Please make sure you confirm that you are coming in order to hold your appointment.

  • Generally, we are 2-3 months out for appointments, but when you finish the onboarding process with the New Patient Coordinator, he will check for the first available appointment and get you scheduled then.

  • You cannot be seen without all forms being completed and submitted electronically.

  • If you experience issues submitting the form on your phone, try submitting it on a computer.

  • You should review the available providers at THE DOCTORS and watch their videos to get to know them better. Although the doctors will review your concerns and recommend a suitable provider, the final choice is yours. Currently, Dr. Wiggy Saunders and Dr. Bruce Lantelme are not accepting new patients. If a provider isn’t able to accept new patients, they won’t be on the scheduler as an option you can pick.

STOP - HAVE YOU BEEN OUR PATIENT BEFORE?

If you have been our patient before, then you already have a Charm account and don’t need to take this step. If you do fill out this form, you will create a duplicate account.

LESS THAN 3 YEARS? If you have been a patient before and it’s been less than 3 years since we saw you last, you may be able to make an appointment. Please call us to find out. You can schedule an appointment by either calling us and choosing the option for Scheduling, or by logging into Charm and scheduling an appointment. If you need your Charm login setup, just contact us at [email protected] and we will take care of it for you.

3 YEARS OR MORE? If you have been a patient before but it’s been 3 years or more since we have seen you, please call our New Patient Coordinator to be setup with an appointment. You can reach the New Patient Coordinator at 336.768.3335 and choose the option for the New Patient Coordinator (currently option 1, but our menu does change).

Please do not fill out this form again and create a duplicate patient account.

Integrative Health Patients

The medicine landscape in the US has been gradually progressing towards a more personalized and holistic approach to healing. A significant part of this progress has been the combination of western medicine and alternative medicine, a concept described as ‘integrative medicine.’ 

This approach to healthcare encompasses a patient’s sense of community, mind, and spirituality into the healing process, aspects largely ignored in conventional medicine. As a result, the approach caters to the whole person rather than a small affected area of their body, and this helps reduce reoccurrences of illness. 

Typically, integrative medicine or complementary and alternative medicine has gotten a gradual reception. Still, its demand has been progressively increasing in the United States hospitals as it continues to get evidence-based backing.  

Research shows that patients who receive integrative medicine are more likely to have reduced or alleviated pain. This results in a decrease in hospital expenses. Integrative health patients incur slightly higher costs than those who use conventional medicine. 

However, evidence-based data shows that integrative health patients have reduced all-risk mortality after discharge, which may prevent additional expenses from future admissions.
