The cost for the New Patient Visit is $250. Many new patients utilize our  Membership program which discounts the New Patient Visit to $200. The Membership also includes discounted labs, supplements, procedures, and convenient smartphone access to your provider.  It is currently available for patients working with Dr. Bacon, Dr. Lampers, Dr. Brennan, and Dr. Wang.

Your doctor may also recommend lab work, supplements, or procedures, which are additional costs to the visit fee.  If you would like information on the cost, just call the office and we can give you an estimate.

Once you are scheduled for a new patient visit, you will be sent an email confirming this appointment.  The email will contain a link to New Patient Paperwork for you to fill out electronically prior to your visit.  Completing this paperwork and answering ALL questions is the most useful way you can prepare for your first visit.

In addition to completing this new patient paperwork you may also want to bring:

• A list of the questions you have for your doctor.
• A medical timeline if you feel that it would be helpful.
• Any records you have such as past medical records, labs, or imaging.  (Please feel free to call us at 406-219-3631 to discuss how to have past records sent to our office.)

Once you are scheduled for a new patient visit with one of our providers you can complete a records request with our office and we will request those records to be sent to our office, or you can contact your other providers directly and have them send the records to us. Our fax number is 406-760-1809. If you already have your medical records, contact our office at 406-219-3631 for the best way to get them to us.

They may recommend a Free 10 Minute Consultation with one of our providers so you can get more information directly from a doctor.

Established patients are able to purchase supplements at the office or through our convenient online dispensary (Fullscript).

Keeping our patients safe is at the forefront of our work at Elevate Health.  We have many patients who are immune compromised or are medically vulnerable.  To maintain safety in our office with the current COVID-19 crisis we have the following protocols:

• Rooms and equipment are cleaned appropriately between visits.
• Telehealth visits are available for patients provided the visit can be conducted without an in-person component.
• Contactless pick up for supplements and other things patient need to pick up from the office is available.
• We request that all patients who are currently contagious with COVID-19 not come into the office.  We are happy to either reschedule your appointment or switch your visit to telehealth.

With this ever changing situation we review our policies regularly and change as necessary.  We are happy to answer any questions you may have concerning these policies.
