FAQs

Do I need a referral to see an endocrinologist?

Whether you need a referral to see an endocrinologist depends on your health insurance plan. If you have an HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) plan, a referral from your primary care doctor is typically required before seeing a specialist. However, if you have a PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) or other insurance plans that allow direct specialist access, you may not need a referral. Medicare and Medicaid may also require referrals depending on state regulations. To avoid unexpected costs or coverage issues, it’s best to check with your insurance provider and confirm the endocrinologist is in-network before scheduling an appointment.

- Zocdoc patient review

"As a long time patient I appreciated the care I got from Dr. Stella. The wait times were always hours long in some instances. However I will be seeking care elsewhere because of the billing company (IRCM) that they use."
