This service eliminates the need for patients to stop at the pharmacy
on the way home — after all, the rest of their day should be dedicated
to relaxation and recovery — and ensures that their post-op meds
won't lapse before they get their prescriptions filled. If patients
choose to participate in our optional program, all they have to do is
bring their prescription insurance information and co-pay on the day
of surgery.
