Welcome to Ecker Dermatology! No referral is needed by us, but may be required by your insurance. We suggest checking with your insurance provider if this is necessary. We are accessible to the greater Twin Cities area. We ask that you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment to allow for paperwork to be filled out. Please bring the following to your appointment:
Please DO NOT feel you need to get your old records to us, if you are a previous patient of Dr. Ecker. We can obtain what is needed, when necessary.
Upon checking in, you will be asked to pay a copay if your insurance requires it. After you are seen, you will checkout at the front desk and any necessary procedures, labs, or appointments will be made for you at that time. If you do not have insurance, or if you do not have your insurance card, you will be asked to pay in full. We do offer a 20% same day payment discount, typically utilized for non-insurance (cash, check, or credit card) dermatology visits, including the visit and any necessary procedures and tests billed by us.
Wecome back! Please arrive just before your appointment time. Please advise the receptionist if there have been any changes to your medical history, insurance information, or address and phone numbers.

On your first visit, you will be asked to review and sign our financial/office policy form. We will provide a copy of this policy to you upon request. All co-pays are due before you are seen. In most cases, visits are considered medical/surgical visits, are billed to insurance, and no fee other than a co-pay is required at the time of service. For example, this is true when a diagnosis has not yet been made, since professional evaluation prior to treatment is necessary to ensure its appropriateness. If you have any questions about this, please do not hesitate to ask. We have other policies and forms to review and sign, including communications consent and MIPS.
At Ecker Dermatology, your privacy is of utmost importance. On your first visit, you will be asked to review and sign our HIPAA/Privacy Policy. We will provide a copy of this policy to you upon request.
