Dr. Samuel W. Vallery recently moved to a new location at 2212 Malvern Ave., Suite 8. He has been in private practice in Hot Springs since June 1995. He specializes in otolaryngology/head and neck surgery.
Because of the ever-increasing complexity and difficulty of providing compassionate, personalized medical and surgical care as a solo, private physician, Vallery is taking steps toward offering a cash-based, free market model of caring for patients. Prices for services can be obtained by telephone or on his detailed website.
Vallery is still "in-network" with some insurance plans. However, he also treats many patients who are "out-of-network," are on Medicare, or have no health insurance. His cash/credit card charges for these patients range from $75-$125. He strives to see patients immediately, or within 24 hours, depending on individual circumstances.
Vallery and his staff provide personalized care for a wide range of ear, nose, throat, head, and neck disorders. Services offered include, but are not limited to, the medical and surgical treatment of ear infections, throat and tonsil infections, sinusitis, neck masses, thyroid tumors, hearing loss, dizziness, face and neck skin cancers, and hoarseness.
His website has more detailed information as well as a comprehensive list of upfront, transparent charges for patients who are on Medicare, are insured but are "out-of-network" patients, and those patients who have no insurance. Visit http://www.samuelvallerymd.com.
People may call Vallery's office at 609-2300 anytime during working hours to find out if he is "in-network" with their insurance plan, and to find if they can benefit from his cash prices. His office hours are 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
