General Reminders for our patients.

Medication Refills
Medication refills must be requested at the patient’s pharmacy 3 – 4 days before they are needed. The pharmacy will fax a Medication Refill Request that provides all the information necessary for the providers to consider a prescription refill. Refill requests may be denied if the patient has failed to follow up as required, is in need of laboratory or imaging studies, is requesting a refill too soon, or for various other reasons. Patients must allow our office 24 – 48 hours to process medication refill requests. Medications will not be refilled outside of regular office hours.

After Hours
Office hours are from 8:00 am – 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Should a patient need to contact a provider outside regular office hours, the clinic’s after hours recording provides instructions for after hours callers. Emergencies must dial 911 immediately.

Canceling Appointments & Late Appointments
If you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment, please call at least 24 hours in advance so that we may offer that appointment to another patient in need and reschedule your appointment for another time. If you fail to cancel your appointment, you may be charged a $25.00 missed appointment fee. Patients who arrive more than 10 minutes late for a scheduled appointment will be asked to reschedule their appointment.

Test Results
The clinic receives the results of laboratory tests and diagnostic imaging within 24 hours to one week depending upon the particular test or procedure. Upon receipt of the laboratory or imaging report, the provider must review and interpret the results and provide instruction or other feedback for the patient. This process may take up to an additional week. Patients receive the results of their laboratory tests or diagnostic imaging by listening to a recording left by our office on an automated system. This automated system not only helps to ensure patient confidentiality by requiring a patient identification number it allows our staff to record a personal message about patient laboratory or imaging results that can be accessed at the patient’s convenience. Patients will call 1-800-536-3132 to retrieve test results. The patient’s identification number will be their social security number. Patients are asked to allow 10-14 days for results to be recorded, before inquiring at the clinic. Any laboratory or imaging results requiring immediate patient follow up will be addressed personally by the providers or nursing staff.
