Gilead is a fee for service healthcare facility, but will accept some insurances for certain treatments. Please call ahead to answer any billing questions you may have.  Generally “Healthcare Insurance” programs and policies are designed to pay for catastrophic illness and injury. Health insurance is not intended to help you become healthier, except when you already have a disease. For example, insurance generally supports treatments with chemical drugs, even though many natural treatments are more effective. Furthermore, nationally the average time a doctor spends with a patient  is only 4.8 minutes.  The benefits of holistic healthcare can never be achieved with drug treatments prescribed after only a 10-minute visit with the doctor.  It is impossible to understand you and your health in that short of time. Here at Gilead patients and doctors spend time together.  Many insurances are accepted, and our fees are very reasonable especially when you consider the extensive professional and educational background of our team of healthcare providers. Not to mention the high quality of service from the entire Gilead team.

Office hours are by appointment. A “new patient” visit is generally the longest because we have to cover a large amount of information; your current health, your past health, family history, a review of current medication and supplements, a physical exam and treatment.

At Gilead, we charge for our time as other professionals do. We bill for the amount of time it takes to provide the service, with the exception of chiropractic and naturopathic services, which has a set fee.

Although our office does not directly bill insurance, you can receive a detailed receipt with the appropriate information so that you can submit to your insurance company. Our office accepts cash, check, and major credit cards.

It is our goal to be very respectful of our patient’s time, and go to considerable lengths to ensure that our patients are seen within 10 minutes of their scheduled appointment time. In turn, we require a 24-hour advance notification for a cancellation.
