Do I need a referral?

A referral is not necessary for treatment; however, if you are currently being treated by a physician it is a good idea to let him know that you are planning to see one of the physicians at M.I.S.S.

How do I get an appointment or treatment?

All you have to do is call us at any of our locations to set up an appointment. The first visit will consist of a full examination, review of tests done and if a procedure is necessary it will be set up. It is very possible to have a procedure the very same day; however, that depends on the time allowed for the procedure and the physicians schedule.

Are your treatments experiments?

No, all procedures done at M.I.S.S. have been tried and tested before they are performed on any patients.

What is minimally invasive?

A minimally invasive medical procedure is defined as one that is carried out by entering the body through the skin, but with the smallest damage possible.
