As such, the free coffee and water stations have been removed from our Johnson City and Elizabethton locations until further notice. EARLY MEDICATION REFILLS With the anticipated COVID-19 outbreak, most major insurance companies are allowing maintenance medications to be refilled early to ensure our patients do not run out of medicine during a quarantine period. Please CALL or TEXT our Dispensary at (423) 431-0317 for refill requests. If you are out of refills, we can reach out to your Healthcare Provider to request additional refills. Also, if you are at high risk for contracting COVID-19, please let us know and we can bring your prescription curbside to your vehicle.
