Planning your visit
A physician referral and HBOT evaluation are required before treatment is scheduled. Sessions average about two hours; treatment count and schedule depend on your condition and response to HBOT. Staff help with ear-pressure changes and check glucose before and after treatment for patients with diabetes. Support people are welcome at orientation; the clinic advises bringing one visitor during treatment, with children remaining in the waiting area. The closest parking is Forest Park Laclede Garage, connected by an enclosed walkway; accessible spaces are available on every level. Street-level drop-off is on Forest Park Avenue.
