What should i do when i need a prescription and my doctor won't answer the phone? (might be on vacation)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doc is on vacation : Make sure you're calling during business hours. Listen clearly to instructions on the voicemail. Email is possible. Leave a voicemail or a message with the answering service if available. A covering doctor may call back. If the pharmacist feels comfortable, you can call them and they may give you a few days worth until your doctor is back. Can go to urgent care or even er as last resort.
