Your visit

A packing list, and a note about insurance

A little preparation makes a Johns Creek or Cumming visit more useful. This page lists what to pack and how insurance usually works for a specialist visit. We do not publish visit or procedure charges on this site.

What to pack for the appointment

  • A government photo ID and the insurance card you use
  • A current list of medicines, supplements and over-the-counter pain relievers, including testosterone products if you use them
  • Prior PSA results, even older ones, and any urine tests you already have
  • CT, ultrasound or MRI reports, and a disc of images if one was given to you
  • Discharge papers from an emergency department if a stone, retention or bleeding is why you are coming
  • Referral paperwork if your plan requires it

If Cumming already started a work-up and the next visit is in Johns Creek, or the other way around, bring your own copies anyway. We would rather read work that has already been done well than repeat it without a reason.

Insurance, in general terms

We see patients with a wide range of insurance plans at both offices. What your plan covers, and whether a referral or prior authorization is needed, depends on the plan itself. The staff who schedule you can help you ask the right questions of your insurer. Bring your card so we can check coverage as far as we are able at registration.

Questions about a hospital bill, a surgery-center bill or a professional bill after a procedure are handled by the billing teams named on those statements. We will not invent a list of charges here, and we will not guess at your out-of-pocket share. If you have a question before a planned procedure, ask us when we schedule it, and we will point you to the people who can talk through coverage.

Official insurance and financial assistance information is also available on the insurance page at advancedurology.com.

Forms and privacy

This website does not collect health information and does not use cookies or tracking scripts. Do not send personal health details through a web form here; there is not one. Bring those details to the visit or share them on a call to 678-344-8900. Our privacy notice explains how online booking leaves this site and finishes on Advanced Urology’s scheduler.

Do you publish charges on this site?

No. Coverage and any amount you may owe depend on your plan and on the visit or procedure that is actually performed.

What if I cannot find an old PSA or CT report?

Come anyway, and tell us where the test was done. We can often request a report. If you have a patient-portal printout or a disc, that still saves time.

Should I arrive early?

Yes, a little early helps registration, insurance checks and any paperwork go more smoothly, especially at a first visit.

Can a family member come in with me?

Yes, if you want them there. Tell us when you book if you will need extra time or an interpreter.

What if I need to cancel or move the visit?

Call 678-344-8900 and we will help you pick another opening at Johns Creek or Cumming.

Where do I go after I park?

For Johns Creek, come to 10730 Medlock Bridge Road and check in for the clinic or, on a procedure day, at the surgery-center desk we name when we book you. For Cumming, come to Suite 180 at 4150 Deputy Bill Cantrell Memorial Road. Our office pages have more detail: Johns Creek and Cumming.

Whenever a visit would help, the Johns Creek and Cumming teams are a phone call or a booked appointment away.
