What is the best way to request medication?

The most efficient way for you to help us take care of your medication refill requests is to complete the online prescription refill request, or have your pharmacy call us or fax your medication requests to (919) 863-6904. Once the medication request is processed, your medication will be called or faxed into your pharmacy.

In some instances, we may require that patient be seen in our office prior to medication renewal. Any request received after 12:00 noon, will be processed the following business day.

How do I get my short-term disability or Family Medical Leave of Absence forms completed?

These forms are usually provided by your employer or insurance company. In effort to streamline the process of completing the large volume of forms we receive daily, we are unable to complete short-term and long-term carrier-specific forms. Instead, we will attach to your form a computer-generated form, which will provide all the information that your insurance carrier is requesting. It may take up to 5-7 business days to process your form. There are several ways you can get these forms to the administrative assistant for your doctor or mid-level provider:

Fax the form(s) to (03) 9934 8834

Mail the form(s) to 3001 Edwards Mill Road, Raleigh, NC 27607

Bring the form(s) to any office location
