In order to receive quality care, NMWC patients are encouraged to keep all scheduled appointments. If patients wish to reschedule or cancel, we ask that you contact us immediately or 24 hours in advance - we would be happy to assist in any way we can! If you're here for a laboratory - walk-in visit, please know you may experience longer wait times than expected. You have the option to schedule any laboratory visits so you are more conveniently taken care of. Our Nimkee Medical Receptionist can be contacted at (989) 775-4670.

Arrival Time:

NMCW patients are encouraged to arrive 15 minutes early to all appointments - unless instructed otherwise. We ask this to be highly regarded as you will need to complete your check-in verification with the Nimkee Patient Registration staff, and you may be required to complete annual paperwork. This was established to ensure enough time before your provider sees you.

What to Expect during your visit:

Bring a copy of all active insurance cards/information to every appointment.

Bring a list of all current medications, over-the-counter medication, and the dosage for all.

Please contact our office if any last-minute questions or concerns arise.

If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, you may be instructed to schedule a COVID-19 test with our medical staff prior to your initial appointment.

You may be referred to a specialist outside of Nimkee Clinic; please contact Purchased Referred Care (PRC) to notate appointments/testing/lab visits.
