How long are appointments?

Appointment lengths with Dr. Luthar are tailored to meet your needs. New patient visits and annual physicals are typically around two hours, allowing time for an in-depth review of your history, detailed diagnostics, and thoughtful planning. Routine follow-up appointments usually run 45 to 60 minutes to ensure continuity of care and space to address multiple concerns.

If your needs are more focused or your schedule is tight, shorter visits can absolutely be arranged. For example, if you have a single acute issue or time-sensitive concern, a quick 15-minute check-in may be more appropriate. This model is designed to support flexibility and ease. Not every appointment needs to be a deep dive, and some visits can be brief and to the point when appropriate.

In between scheduled visits, care can continue through other channels. Depending on the situation, this may include secure messaging, phone calls, telehealth, or brief text updates. The goal is to offer a personalized and responsive care experience that supports both your health and your day-to-day life.
