Frequently Asked Questions

How is payment handled for appointments with Dr. Martin? Is it covered by Medical Services Plan (MSP)?
In BC, medical consultations with specialists like Dr. Martin are typically covered by your provincial health insurance (Medical Services Plan (MSP)) when you present a valid health card and have the required referral. You generally do not pay directly for the consultation service itself. Some specific procedures, forms, or administrative tasks might not be covered by Medical Services Plan (MSP) and may incur a separate fee according to provincial guidelines. Please inquire if you have questions about uninsured services.
Can I book an appointment directly or do I absolutely need a referral?
A referral from your family physician or another medical specialist is required to see Dr. Martin. As experts in Internal Medicine and Geriatric Care, Internists and Geriatricians see patients based on specific medical questions posed by the referring doctor. This ensures continuity of care and that the consultation is appropriate for your needs. Please have your doctor forward the referral information.
Is Dr. Martin affiliated with a specific hospital?
Hospital privileges can vary. Dr. Martin may have admitting privileges or provide consultation services at specific local hospitals. This affiliation allows for coordinated care if hospitalization is required. If you are admitted, the hospital team may consult Dr. Martin as needed, or he might be involved in your care depending on the specific hospital and service arrangements. Please confirm details with the office if needed.
How does Dr. Perry Myles Martin communicate with my family doctor?
Clear communication with your referring physician is a priority. Dr. Martin will send a comprehensive consultation letter outlining the assessment findings, diagnosis (if established), and treatment recommendations. This ensures your family doctor is fully informed and can continue to coordinate your overall care effectively.
Can a family member or friend accompany me to the appointment?
Yes, absolutely. Patients are welcome to bring a family member, friend, or caregiver to their appointment for support, to help recall information, or to ask questions. Especially for complex discussions or if memory is a concern, having a second person present can be very beneficial.
How long should I expect my appointment to last?
Initial consultations with Dr. Martin are comprehensive and typically require more time, often ranging from 45 to 75 minutes, depending on the complexity of your medical history and concerns. Follow-up appointments are usually shorter. We recommend allowing ample time for your visit, including check-in and potential waiting periods.
