Referral Process:

A referral from your Primary Care physician is needed for us to schedule an appointment. Please keep us informed about visits to other physicians. This ensures that your medical record is always current, and aids us in providing you with the best care. We will never release your confidential medical information without your consent.

Prescription Refill Process:

When calling for a prescription renewal, please know the name of the drug that you need and telephone number of the pharmacy where you fill your prescriptions. Please monitor you medication supply to avoid the need for prescription renewals on weekends or holidays. Refills should be requested during regular business hours, Monday through Friday. There are many medications that the on-call physicians cannot refill over the phone. We prefer 48 hours notice for refills. This allows us time to get your physician's approval and the pharmacy time to fill the prescription.
