Phone Calls & Messages

Our office line is very busy and we may not answer immediately. Please leave a clear voicemail with your full name, phone number, and a brief reason for your call. We review every message and do our best to return calls the same day.

Prescription Renewals

Please ask your pharmacy to fax refill requests directly to us. Once your doctor approves the request and signs the prescription, we’ll fax it back to your pharmacy. There is no need to call the clinic for renewals. Because this process can take up to 72 hours, please plan ahead so you don’t run out of medication while the renewal is processed and faxed to your pharmacy.
