Call your pharmacy to request your refills (even if the bottle says zero refills). If your prescription requires approval, please allow 2-3 days for this to process. If your refill request is denied, please call the office.

Do not call the office to ask for a refill unless it is a controlled substance, mail order refill, or if the pharmacy denied your refill request.

Please allow at least 3-hours for your new prescription to process. It can take pharmacists time to check voice mail orders for new prescriptions.

This depends on your unique healthcare. It varies based on your medical history, age, medical conditions, and the medications you are currently taking. To determine how regularly you need to have an appointment with your care provider, you must be seen by your care provider. At the minimum, if you are in good health, we recommend that you come in to visit your care provider at least one time per year for your annual physical.  If you have diabetes or high blood pressure, you should be seen at least every 6 months.

Please provide as much advanced notice as possible.

• Canceling within 24 hours may result in a $30.00 fee.
• No-showingfor an appointment may result in a $50.00 fee.
• 2+ missed/ no-show appointmentswithout any prior notice are grounds for being discharged from the practice.

When you don’t allow the office the courtesy of knowing you will be unable to make your appointment, you are taking away appointment opportunities for “same-day” sick patients.
