Appointments
Our office has an Open-Access policy. We strive for same-day
and next-day appointments. We make it easy to book your
appointment:
Arriving more than 10 minutes late to your appointment may
result in rescheduling.
Cancelling your appointment with less than 24 hours notice, or not
showing up as scheduled, may results in a $25 rescheduling fee.
Prescription
Refills
In an attempt to reduce the need for refill requests, the doctor
will try to make sure patients have enough refills to last their
next recommended follow-up (typically 3 months). Please
remind the doctor of refills at every visit.
We ask that all patients be seen for an office visit prior to
authorizing any type of medication refill, with the following
exceptions:
- Prescriptions filled at the on-site pharmacy (Provincial
Pharmacy) may receive a limited-supply refill by contacting the
pharmacy directly
- Phone request for refills may be subject to a $15 fee
- Controlled substances (opioids, stimulants, sedatives) will only
be refilled during an office visit
Lab and Diagnostic Test
Results
We do not discuss test results over the phone (with the exception
of INR results for patients on Coumadin). We ask all patients
to come back for a return office visit to discuss results.
Results are generally available 1 week after the test has been
performed. If you contact the office about results, we will
only confirm whether or not results have arrived.
To help serve our patients better, we ask the patients choose one
of the following options at the time of testing:
1) schedule a follow up appointment for one week or
later
2) ask the front desk to contact you when results are in so
you may be seen in a timely manner
Services not covered by
OHIP
There are a variety of services offered that are NOT covered by
OHIP. Patients are expected to pay at the time of
service. Special arrangements for financial hardship are made
on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the physician.
