Tricks of the Trade:
- To make a reservation call the above number Monday - Friday from 7 am to 6 pm.
- They ask for 2 days advanced notice but are usually able to schedule with 24 hours notice.
- When they used to provide bus tokens, they would mail them to patients. I'm not sure if they mail metro cards to patients now. If you know, please leave a comment.
