Insurance
We currently are accepting all forms of TennCare, Medicare and private insurance. Please call for a screening interview by phone as we want there to be a good fit between us and our patients.
Narcotic policy
Dr. Schindler does not operate a chronic pain service. We limit the amount of narcotics and other controlled drugs prescribed and encourage patients with non-cancer chronic pain to consider choosing another area physician if those drugs are their main reason for changing doctors. Those patients on such medications will agree to random drug testing and review of medication usage.
Drug Samples and Vendors
We believe that the use of sample drugs actually is a wasteful and harmful practice. We do not entertain pharmaceutical representatives and do not accept any gifts or samples from drug companies. If you desire sample medications we encourage you to seek care with a physician who does receive samples.
Christian Worldview
Dr. Schindler is a Christian. This shapes his approach to medicine and influences his life. What he hopes this means for his patients is that he lives the compassion and moral principles of our Lord and Savior. He hopes to encourage you in your spiritual life.
Uninsured Patients
We know that many working people have no insurance. We are happy to see you and do take cash paying patients.
Review of New Patients
Dr Schindler or his staff review all requests by patients to enter the practice. This is done to try to ensure a good doctor-patient fit. All prospective new patients are told about our narcotic and controlled drug policy, our hospital admission preferences and our hours operation to ensure no confusion.
