Emergencies:
For life-threatening emergencies, please
call 911 and ask to be taken to the Emergency Room at your
local hospital. After the ambulance is called, you may contact the
office or physician on call (see below) to inform them of the situation.
If you are unable to do this, the Emergency Room staff should be asked
to contact us after they evaluate you.
Urgent Issues:
During office hours, call (781) 237-0700
to reach the staff at the Wellesley Office. Ask to speak to the
nursing staff: they will contact your physician after they speak to
you.
During evenings, weekends and holidays
when the office is closed, the 781-237-0700 phone number will reach
our answering service who will page the physician on call for you.
They will ask you for a brief reason for your call, the name of your
regular oncologist, and your phone number including the area code.
This information is put directly into the beeper of the physician-on-call
and is very helpful. If you do not receive a call back from the physician,
please call the answering service a second time and ask for the page
to be repeated.
