Prescription, New &  Renewals

When calling for a prescription refill, please have the name of the medication, dosage, and your preferred pharmacy. Generally, routine medication refills are sent the same day during regular office hours but it may take up to 48 hours. You can also request a prescription refill via the Patient Portal.  Try to anticipate your refill needs. If you are due for an appointment, we will kindly ask that you schedule one. However, if you are completely out of your medication, we will supply a one month refill to cover you until you can schedule an appointment. 

​

New prescriptions require an office visit so that we can evaluate your problem and make a proper medical diagnosis per regulations set forth by NJ Medical Board.
