A few words from Dr. Loftus on his practice philosophy…
My practice centers on teamwork, education and communication. The physician and patient must work together as a team to develop a treatment plan. Communication between the patient and physician is critical. I also believe that an informed patient can assist better in his or her own medical care, which results in a better outcome for the patient. The purpose of this website is to increase my patient's understanding of their medical condition. I pride myself on having a different kind of medical practice than many physicians. I give personalized care and attention to my patients.
To better care for my patients, we utilize electronic medical records. This means that when you call, your chart is instantly available. With signed consent, I communicate with patients about their care through email. For appropriate patients, I offer follow up telephone visits. My office sends email and cell phone text message appointment reminders, my office will follow-up with patients just to see how they are doing, and at least every six months my office surveys our patients so they can give us valuable feedback.
