# New patients

You are seen within five business days of asking. Here is how to get started and what to bring.

## How it works

1. 1Choose a doctorSee who is accepting new patients, where they work and on which days.[Find a doctor](https://medical.cms.brandcoders.com/doctors)
2. 2Request an appointmentTell us the clinic and a day that suit. It takes about a minute.[Request an appointment](https://medical.cms.brandcoders.com/request-appointment)
3. 3We call youWithin one business day, to confirm a time and answer any questions.
4. 4Come inArrive 15 minutes early for your first visit, so we can set up your record.

## What to bring

- Your **insurance card**, if you have one, and a photo ID.
- A list of the **medicines you take**, with doses. The bottles themselves are fine.
- The name of your **last doctor**, so we can ask for your records.
- For a child, their **immunization record**.

If you have no insurance, come anyway. We have sliding-scale fees and can help you apply for the Oregon Health Plan.

## Questions new patients ask

**Do I need a referral?**

Not for family medicine, pediatrics, women’s health or walk-in care. Some insurance plans ask for a referral from your own doctor before you see a specialist; your Wrenfield doctor can make one the same day.

**Can I keep the same doctor?**

Yes. You choose one doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant and see them every visit. If they are away, you see a colleague at the same clinic who has your record.

**What if I need to be seen today?**

Albany, Salem and Eugene take walk-ins until 7 pm on weekdays, whether or not you are a patient yet. For anything life-threatening, call 911.

**How do I move my records to Wrenfield?**

Tell us your last doctor’s name at your first visit and sign a release. We ask for the records ourselves; it usually takes one to two weeks.
