Getting Ready for Your Visit

As a new patient of Northwest Medical Specialties, first let us welcome you to our practice!

New Patient Packet

Before your initial appointment can be scheduled, we first need your referring physician to fax your patient records to our New Patient Coordinator. The specific fax number will be given to you during the scheduling of your initial appointment. When we receive your records we will verify your information and start the process of your New Patient Registration form.

How to Prepare for Your Appointment

In preparation for your first appointment, we ask that you bring all completed forms, your medical and pharmacy insurance cards and a picture ID to your first appointment.

In advance of your first appointment, you also may want to review our insurance information for insurance companies with which we are contracted. Please contact them directly if you have any benefit, co-insurance or co-pay questions.

If you have any further questions, please call us at (253) 428-8700 and ask to be connected to our New Patient Coordinator.

Virtual welcome orientations are offered to provide education regarding services our practice offers including the navigation team.

Your privacy is important to NWMS. Here are some things to remember when joining the conference call:

• There will be several other participants joining
• You do NOT need to add your name to join
• You do NOT need to share your screen or camera
• Presenter will NOT talk about your personal information

During your visit you will be asked if you would like to sign up for our Patient Portal. If yes, you will receive an email invitation. Once you complete the necessary information, a user id and password will be generated. Use this information to login to the secure patient portal.
