Objection responses (tap to expand)
"Does my insurance cover this?"
We're concierge and out-of-network — that's what lets Dr. Cruz spend real time with you and order the right workup. After your visit we provide a detailed superbill to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement (varies by plan), and we accept HSA, FSA, and CareCredit.
"Why do I need a consult if my doctor already referred me?"
Your doctor's referral gets you to the right place, but Dr. Cruz still needs to do her own evaluation to build a plan that's specific to you — that's standard for any specialist referral, and it's what makes sure the plan actually fits your labs and history.
"It sounds expensive."
I'll be transparent about the cost once we've confirmed which service fits best — Dr. Cruz's team can walk you through exactly what's included, and we do offer CareCredit if you'd like to spread out payment.
