Pre-Registration/Check-In Process
RAPPAHANNOCK FOOT & ANKLE SPECIALISTS uses Klara to communicate securely with our patients via text message. You will receive a link with instructions on how to access your patient portal, where you can update your personal and medical information.
Completing your information through the portal allows our office to keep records accurate and up to date, while giving you the convenience of completing forms at home. You will receive a text and/or email 72 hours prior to your appointment to complete your registration. The pre-registration helps to save both the patient and our staff time during check-in.
Please note that our system allows patients to complete only half of the registration process at home. We ask that you arrive 10 minutes early to complete the remaining portion of check-in at the office.
For patients who are unable to complete pre-registration in advance, iPads are available in our office and we ask that you arrive 20 minutes prior to your appointment. If you need assistance completing your in-office check-in, our staff will be more than happy to assist.
On the day of your appointment, please bring:
- Your insurance card(s)
- A driver’s license or photo ID
- A complete list of all medications, including dosages
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office at (540) 371-2724, option 3. We look forward to seeing you.
