“Dr. Kawira is great. After going through a few, she was by far the most caring, paid attention to my needs, assessed my condition and helped me make the best choices. She listens with concern and her feedback is prompt and efficient. I have finally found a doctor worth seeing over and over again. Thank you Dr. Kawira.”

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
