Buffalo Nutrition & Dietetics, PLLC Scheduling Process

Scheduling

Scheduling an appointment has never been easier

STEP 1

Contact Us

Call our office at (716) 704-0684 to speak with our scheduling liaison, OR become a new patient immediately by clicking the links below to sign up through our secure Patient Portal.

STEP 2

Activate Your Patient Portal

Our state of the art electronic medical record is where all your medical information is securely kept. The portal is the fastest way for you to communicate with your dietitian between visits. It is HIPAA, PIPEDA, and GDPR Compliant so that your information is safe and secure. It is also available as an App which we recommend downloading for ease of access.

​

Your portal allows you to send secure messages and attachments, access your health information and care plans, request and reschedule appointments, submit payment information securely, and utilize the free health tools available to you as a patient of our practice.

​

For more information, read our Privacy Policy.

STEP 3

Complete New Patient Forms

Once you have activated your invitation to the portal, you will be prompted to complete our New Patient Forms within the system. If you opt out of the portal, let your dietitian know at time of scheduling, and we will mail them to you.

​

Completing our forms is essential to helping your Dietitian develop a nutrition/wellness program that addresses your needs, goals, and interests, and that is safe and effective. They include medical release and HIPAA forms that allow us to communicate with your health care providers by sending recommendations and receiving test results we have requested on your behalf. 

 

This information is also needed for us to correctly submit claims to your insurance company for coverage. Although visits are free or of little cost to you with most insurance plans we accept, we encourage you to check with your insurance company prior to your appointment. 

​

Once you have completed your intake forms, our office will be in touch with you to schedule your new patient appointment. For Virtual Diabetes Classes, the class schedule will be immediately available to you for sign up under the "sessions" tab where you will see the option to "book".
