Frequently asked questions
Practical answers about insurance, payment, and how care works. View all FAQs
Do you accept insurance?
Bren OB/GYN is an out-of-network practice. This allows us to provide longer visits, direct physician access, and highly personalized care. Laboratory testing, imaging, hospital services, and medications are billed through your insurance whenever possible.
How is payment handled?
Transparency is important to us. Bren OB/GYN operates on a fee-for-service model, meaning our pricing is straightforward and not determined by insurance companies. Professional service fees are listed on our Services page. Payment is due at the time of your visit, and patients are asked to keep a credit card securely on file for ongoing care. If you have out-of-network benefits, we are happy to provide the documentation needed for you to seek reimbursement from your insurance carrier.
Are you accepting new patients?
Yes. We welcome new obstetric and gynecologic patients, including those seeking a more personalized care experience.
How do I join the waitlist?
