Convenient Centralized Scheduling
In many cases your referring physician will schedule your examination. However, should you wish or need to do it yourself, our staff would be happy to schedule your exam at any of our convenient sites. To make your non-urgent appointment:
- Please complete our secure appointment request form.
- Someone will contact you to confirm your appointment request.
- OR, you may also call (716) 631-2500, Monday – Friday, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm or Saturdays, 9:00 am – 12:00 noon.
Certain departments are open more extended hours when needed. We will be happy to try and accommodate your needs.
We do recommend that you arrive 20-30 minutes in advance of your appointment time to register and provide history updates. Please bring the following with you.
- Your ordering physician’s slip.
- If you receive a recall reminder for your annual mammogram, please be sure to contact your physician for a referral slip prior to your appointment.
- Name and address of any other physician(s) you would like to receive a copy of your report.
- Any health updates, medications, etc.
- Your insurance card
- If your health insurance requires a prior authorization for your exam, please ensure this is done in advance of your exam time.
- Your co-payment, if your health insurance requires one.
Reporting Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) is a valuable tool for referring physicians. PACS gives your physician the ability to access digital exam images over the Internet via his or her own office computer.
Does this mean you cannot access a copy of your images? Not at all. If you need to obtain your images, please call us 24 hours in advance. With a filmless system and an off-site archive, we would like to have your images ready in advance so that we do not keep you waiting! You may choose to pick images up at any one of the sites closest to you as long as we have advance notice.
Windsong Radiology Group has made great strides to become 95% digital. As a result, we no longer print films. Instead, we offer an improved solution by providing referring providers and/or patients a copy of his/her images on a CD.
Storing bulky film jackets is no longer required and images can be conveniently, quickly viewed via our self-loading CDs. However, if a surgeon or provider has made alternative arrangements with Windsong Radiology Group prior to this policy going into effect 11/1/05, they will still receive films.
Mammography analog films are stored for ten (10) years on inactive patients (we keep all films on active patients). All other analog films are kept for seven (7) years. Borrowed films must be returned to us within 30 days as they are a permanent part of your medical record.
