City: Lockport State: NY | Great, another appointment!!!! I know why they make you jump through the hoops but this is getting nuts, especially for people who have to take sick days (like myself) in order to go to these appointments. Man-o-man.

Of course, still have to be approved through BC/BS of WNY but that's not an issue so hey--I'm on my way!!! |

| I don't know if he takes healthy NY. Your best bet would be to call Dr. Hoffmans assistant Lisa at 859-4024.

| I agree with LIVELAUGHLOVE. Dr. Hoffmans card reads General Surgery/Laparoscopic Surgery. I would give his assistant Lisa a call at 859-4024 to find out if they accept your insurance.
