Is This Legal?
Our organization, in developing within this new Internet medium for the delivery of health care services, is committed to meeting and exceeding current regulations.

We only utilize board-certified physicians that are licensed to practice in the United States.  All orders are filled by Licensed US pharmacies by pharmacists licensed to practice in the United States.  All medications are obtained from FDA approved, legitimate pharmaceutical wholesalers.  You will be receiving the same medication that you would at your local pharmacy.

Note that our pharmacy fulfillment service is HIPAA compliant, and that information is not shared, except as required by law.  Note that all information requests on an order must be provided via phone, not email.

We also do not prescribe any narcotics or addictive medications via the Internet, such as codeine, xanax, oxycontin, or valium.  Do not request these products from us.

How are you able to do this/How does an online consult work?
Online consultations are a new concept in health care that utilize the Internet to improve patient access to physician care and much needed medications. Rather than having the patient receive a traditional physical exam by the physician, they rather complete an online medical questionnaire and submits the information using our online communication tool. Although online consultations will never take the place of traditional medicine, they do provide a means for patients to receive treatment for a limited number of conditions that, in certain circumstances, may not require a physical exam.  Based off your medical evaluation, the physician will then approve or deny your medication.  If you are declined approval for medication for any reason there is never any charge to you and you can contact our toll free number for detailed information on the reason for the decline. Currently, the must common reason for decline is ordering too quickly after your previous order (before your current prescription should run out).  We can assist you in providing you a date that you can next order.  The other major reason is a medical condition preventing safe use of a particular medication.
What is the charge for your online doctor consult?
Zero. While some sites do charge a consultation fee, we never charge a fee for your consultation with our physicians or the writing of your prescription.
What happens after I order?
You will first receive a printable order confirmation page with an order number on our website with all your order information.  You will also receive the order confirmation via email.  Keep this for your records.  If your order is declined by the system or by the doctor, you will receive notification via email from our automated system.

Once your order is approved by the doctor, your order is sent to the pharmacy to be filled.  Once your order has been filled at the pharmacy,  we can not cancel your order and we will not have the ability to do so.

Once your order has been picked up by FedEx, a shipping confirmation will be sent to the email that you provided, along with a FedEx tracking number.

We also provide you a variety of contact options with an online order status system to follow the progress of your order in our system online.  That can be found HERE

Note that your FedEx tracking number will not be active in the FedEx customer service system until your order has been scanned into the system at their facility by FedEx after they pick up the order.

 

What are your privacy policies?
All your information is covered by doctor/patient privilege, and we never release any data of any kind to any third party except when required by law.  This includes names and email addresses. 

 

What are your Shipping Policies?
We currently ship orders via FedEx overnightYour prescription, once the pharmacy has received it approved from the physician, will be filled, and picked up by FedEx in approximately one to two business days.  You will receive your package the next business day after it is picked up by FedEx if you picked the next day air option.  If you need medication by a specific date, we recommend order placement 5-7 business days before receipt is wanted.

Your order, if placed after 2:00pm EST will not be processed until next business day.

Orders placed on weekends or holidays are processed the next business day.

FedEx does not ship/pickup orders or deliver on weekends or holidays.  This means that your order can not be picked up or delivered by FedEx sooner than the next business day.  We do not offer weekend delivery.  

Your FedEx shipping fee of $18 guarantees that once shipped, your package will arrive through FedEx Overnight on the next business day.  It covers the cost of shipping FedEx overnight once your order is shipped, and is not intended to imply any other sort of guarantee.   Please remember that orders placed after 2pm EST, weekends or holidays, can not be processed until the next business day.  While we make every attempt to ship orders as quickly as possible, delays due to manufacturer shortages, holidays, and other matters we make no guarantees on time frame of receipt of medication from order date.

Upon FedEx picking up your order, you will receive a confirmation email containing a FedEx tracking number and a link to the FedEx site where you can track your package in real time. Note that your FedEx tracking number will not be active in the FedEx customer service system until your order has been scanned into the system at their facility by FedEx after they pick up the order.  This is often done in the evening.

There must be an adult signature at time of delivery, so NO POST OFFICE BOXES or APOs can be used. You will be notified if there is a problem with your order.  In most cases you can pick up your package at your local FedEx office the same day if it arrives when you are not there.  FedEx would leave details of this at time of attempted delivery.
