Minor Illness Walk In Clinic

MINOR ILLNESS WALK-IN CLINIC

We know that illnesses aren’t planned and it can be difficult to get an appointment at the last minute.

We are glad to offer walk-in care M-F 7:30 am – 4:00 pm for our established patients.

NO NEED TO CALL – JUST WALK-IN – First come first serve appointment availability

These appointments aren’t for every type of problem.  They are only for those minor yet urgent problems such as:

  • 感冒和流感症状
  • 尿路感染
  • 喉咙痛
  • 皮疹
  • 耳朵疼痛
  • 急性背部和关节疼痛
  • 恶心/呕吐

Please note: The Walk-In clinic does not address long-term chronic issues or hospital follow-ups.

The Walk-In clinic is not for medical emergencies like chest pain or shortness of breath.  You should go to the emergency room or call 911 if you are having a medical emergency.

New Office Policy on Prescription Refills including Controlled Substances

In adherence to The Virginia Board of Medicine prescribing guidelines for Controlled Substances, our office has implemented the following protocol.   “Please note these policies are in accordance with Virginia Law.”

Effective immediately all prescription refill requests including Controlled Substances require 72 hour notice for your refill.  We will no longer accommodate same day prescription refill requests.

In no event will controlled substance prescriptions be mailed to patients.

If you are prescribed a medication for pain management (ie all opioids, 包括曲马多), per Virginia Board of Medicine prescribing guidelines for Controlled Substances, 你必须:

  • Sign our Controlled Substances Policy.
  • You will need to be seen for an office visit every three months for your “pain management”. Failure to keep these appointments could prevent your medication refill.  Please note: If you do not have an appointment already scheduled within the next three months, please contact our scheduling department so that they can schedule your appointment.
  • You will be subject to random “urine drug screenings” as per Virginia Board of Medicine prescribing guidelines. Failure to comply with such requests for screening or screening results that indicate failure to comply with the prescribed dosage, multiple sources of controlled substances, or illegal or illicit drug usage may result in dismissal from the practice.

Thank you for allowing us to participate in your medical care.
