, Please enter Vital Sign Information.

(Patients please read the following before entering data in the fields below)

The following fields are available for patients to use to record the vital signs and/or lab readings to log their readings over time. This data is available for patients to review by selecting the "Vital Sign History" tab. Patients are not required to enter all fields but only those that are requested by the doctor or at their discretion. Patients are encouraged to enter multiple readings for the same day if necessary. For example, if you are interested in only logging your glucose readings from your daily blood testing using the finger prick method then only enter this reading and select submit. To enter another reading on the same day simply enter the second reading and submit. Also, if you are interested in entering test results from previous dates simply select the appropriate date and enter the data. The data will be entered and viewed in the Vital Sign History. This data will be downloaded into Dr. Sprecher's database for follow-up consultation and/or recommendations during office visits.
