Prescriptions and refills for established patients of Advanced Bone & Joint are routinely issued during our regular office hours (see above). You can make your request by calling your preferred pharmacy, who will in turn reach us electronically for your refill.

Refills are generally not issued during the evenings, weekends, or holidays, as the doctors may not have access to all your medical record during those times. It is helpful to anticipate your refill needs, with at least 48 hours' notice, to avoid an interruption in your medication therapy.

If your insurance is an HMO/managed care plan and you are required to obtain a referral from your primary care physician, the referral must be obtained before you can be seen for an office visit. Please coordinate this with your primary care physician in advance. Appointments will be rescheduled if required referrals are not received in the office by the time of your visit.

To request and obtain your medical records, simply visit the Health Exchange Evolved website and fill out and submit the required HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) Authorization Form.
