The Sauble Family Health Team staff receives a large amount of prescription refill requests in the form of calls from patients and faxes from pharmacies. In order to continue providing the highest quality of medical care and ensure your safety, we are implementing a new prescription refill policy, effective immediately.
We do not accept faxed prescription renewals from pharmacies.
BEFORE you come to your scheduled office visit, please look over all of your medications, inhalers, diabetes supplies, nutritional supplements etc. to determine if you need to request refills during your visit with your health care provider.
It is YOUR responsibility to schedule an appointment BEFORE you run out of medication. Please make sure that you have enough medication to last UNTIL your next appointment.
All patients with chronic medical conditions will require regular follow -up visits at our office. During these visits your health care provider will look for changes in your condition and assess the effectiveness of your medication. It is important to keep your scheduled appointments, even if you have no concerns. This will ensure that you receive timely refills.
