Medication Services

Prescriptions and Refills

If you are currently receiving medication, your pharmacy can provide refills or call us to get authorization for refills. Please call your pharmacy when you have an existing prescription to confirm that your medication is being prepared. Refills for restricted medications and initiating new prescriptions may require a clinic visit.

If a written refill is needed, please notify the clinic in advance, so the prescription can be prepared, and your provider has time to discuss any changes with you if they are indicated. We prefer you notify us one week prior to needing a written prescription, but we need a minimum of 48-72 hours. Arranging for refills and new prescriptions depends on both the clinic (by responding in a timely manner) and you (by notifying us of your need).
