Prepare for Your Appointment at Our Endocrinology Practice

Our goal is to provide the best compassionate, comprehensive, evidence-based endocrine care in Pinellas County.  You can pre-register for a new patient appointment here or on the home page.  After you pre-register, someone from the office will call you to set an appointment and ask the necessary additional questions to serve you.  After the new patient appointment is scheduled you can fill out the questionaires on our patient portal prior to the appointment.  Please arrive on time for your new patient appointment as we have built in time for the paperwork needed and charting.  For established patients, please arrive 5-10 minutes before your scheduled appointment for check-in.  Dr. Lake respects your time and runs an efficient office. We do not double book appointments and like to spend our time with you.  We miss you when you do not show up as scheduled.  We ask that you call us and provide at least a 24-hour notice to avoid any late, cancellation, or no-show fees.

For the most comprehensive appointment, please have your primary care physician or referring doctor fax your relevant medical records to 727-477-0498 prior to your appointment. If you have an HMO insurance plan, please have your primary care physician fax us the Referral Authorization prior to every appointment.  Appointments without referrals will not be scheduled, or will need to be rescheduled until proper authorization is received. Please remember to bring a current medication list and any glucose meters, log books, insulin pumps, or continuous glucose monitors you may use to each appointment.
