The Outpatient Pharmacy Department is located on the 7th floor. We dispense medications pursuant to a physician’s prescription and provide counseling for discharged and ambulatory care patients.

Staffed by licensed pharmacists during clinic hours, we meet the demands of patients who wish to have their prescriptions filled or refilled around the time of their clinic visit. All patients who have their prescriptions filled at the Outpatient Pharmacy are offered counseling about their medications by a pharmacist. 

Our primary role is to provide compounded medications. We do not take any prescription insurance, thus patients with prescriptions for commercially available medications are encouraged to go to a retail pharmacy to use their prescription insurance. We will still fill prescriptions for commercially available medications if the patient wishes, but we do maintain a limited formulary.
