In the event of a life-threatening emergency (such as a heart attack or loss of consciousness), call 911 or your local emergency number immediately or go directly to the nearest Emergency Department (ED) by ambulance. (If your problem is not life threatening, always call our office at 603-889-3667 before seeking care.)
On your arrival at the ED, a triage nurse will evaluate your condition and direct you to an appropriate area within the ED for your care. If you are to be admitted to the hospital, the ED will call our on-call provider. If you are not admitted, a summary of your visit will be sent to your Primary Care Provider.
Your co-pay for an emergency hospital visit is usually listed on the front of your insurance card. If you have questions regarding an emergency visit, please refer to the member services department of your insurance plan.
When the office is closed during evening, weekends or holiday hours, a designated physician will be on-call to answer your questions and guide you to appropriate care. Depending on your symptoms, you may be directed to the emergency department or to Immediate Care of Southern New Hampshire (for non life-threatening conditions) . Call 577-CARE (2273) if you have any questions.
