We are happy to assist with mail order prescription refills.  A written prescription signed by your practitioner will be required.  Unless you request otherwise, our prescription will be mailed to your home. We encourage you to plan ahead and allow for mail time if you utilize mail order services.

When having an appointment, please bring all of your medications. Be sure to include medications from all physicians, over the counter, herbal and vitamins.
