You can also request an appointment through UH MyChart.

Requests for refills should be left on your primary physician's nurse line. Be sure to include your name or the child's full name, date of birth, a phone number where you can be reached in case of a question, the name and dosage of the medication and your pharmacy's name and number. You may be asked to schedule a follow up visit before a medication is refilled if deemed necessary by the physician. Refill requests should be made 5 days before the prescription is due to run out. Prescriptions for controlled substances such as ADHD medications, must be picked up at the office. Other prescriptions will be sent by e-mail to your pharmacy, normally by the end of the day.

Our electronic medical record allows us to e-prescribe any prescriptions at your appointment within seconds. This will allow us to keep better track of all medications you are currently or have been taking, even if prescribed by another office. For prescription refills please try to give as much advance notice as possible; feel free to leave a message for the nurse, we ask that for most refills your child's physical is up-to-date.

Medications that are more closely regulated by the FDA have different requirements for prescribers. We are required by law to see your child regularly to monitor medication use and usefulness.

Patients can use MyChart to request refills from primary care and specialty providers.

Based on medical necessity, your primary care physician will be able to refer you to a specialist. However, a referral cannot be made without an evaluation by your primary care physician. If you go to a specialist without a referral, your specialist claim may be denied by your insurance company and the bill will become your responsibility. Due to contractual obligations with your insurance company, we cannot backdate or give you retroactive referrals.

If an emergency should arise, please call 911. Emergencies are considered to be those conditions that are life-threatening; loss of consciousness, severe bleeding, seizure, etc.
