Drop-In Visit: Medication Refill

Virtual Medication Renewals & Refills

Introduction

Out of your medication or about to run out? Request a prescription renewal from an online clinician when you need it.

FAQs:

IS VIRTUAL CARE SAFE?

In general virtual medical care is very safe. When utilized appropriately it can be a valuable & convenient alternative to traditional office visits. That being said, there are hard lines between what is appropriate to care for virtually with major restrictions on what is appropriate. Our process is to limit the care we offer virtually to very specific conditions that we know we can safely and effectively manage without an office visit.

IS THIS THE SAME AS URGENT CARE?

Urgent care clinics are similar to our drop-in clinic and walk-in clinics in general, but traditionally will have additional capabilities such as onsite labs, X-rays, and other services that are of benefit to patients with higher medical needs than we provide. If you have complex needs such as dehydration, shortness of breath, or other more urgent type needs that may require onsite labs, x-rays or other services please make your way to a local Urgent Care or ER.

IS THIS THE SAME AS PRIMARY CARE?

No. While we actually are a Primary Care clinic, it is intended for established patients only. Our Drop-In clinic is for problem-specific, acute medical problems for those who have not established with us. We will not address any chronic or ongoing needs unless you have established with us under our Direct Primary Care Membership Program

HOW QUICKLY CAN I BE SEEN?

We can typically see patients same day / next day however at times we may book up to 72 hours in advance. Check at the bottom of the page for upcoming availabilities!

DO YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?

At this time we do not accept insurance. All visits are self-pay only. If you have any private insurance you may still be seen, but we cannot self-pay with any patients who have Medicare or Medicaid

All Virtual Visits have a standard visit fee of $75.
