Specialty Clinics

Specialty Clinics at J.C.F.
A referral from your primary care practitioner is required before you see one of the specialists. Your doctor's office can call, mail or fax the information to us and we will make the appointment. Please let the receptionist know what type of insurance you have when you call for an appointment so it can be handled appropriately. Some insurances require a pre-authorization for visits to specialists.
