Questions to ask when you call
- Are you taking new patients, and how soon is the first appointment?
- Does Ifrana Zaman see adults, and do you take my Medicaid plan?
- Do I need a referral from a general dentist first?
- Do you offer reduced fees or a payment plan for patients without insurance?
- What will the first visit cost me, and what will it include?
A dentist registered at an address may work there only some days, or may have moved on. The clinic's front desk can confirm.
