Here are some tips that will help us give you the best possible care at Marlboro Internal Medicine:
Make sure your provider knows all the medications you are taking. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, as well as dietary supplements such as vitamins and herbs.
Make sure your provider knows about any allergies and adverse reactions you have had to medicines. This will help you avoid getting a medicine that can harm you.
Make sure you know the prescriptions your provider prescribes. Always verify that it is the medication your pharmacy dispenses to you.
If you have any questions about the directions on your medicine label, ask your pharmacist to explain them to you.
Ask for information about possible side effects of medicines prescribed to you. If you know what might happen, you will be better prepared if it does, or if something unexpected happens instead.
If you see a specialist or another provider outside Marlboro Internal Medicine, ask for a copy of your medical records and bring it with you the next time you see a Marlboro Internal Medicine provider.
If you have tests performed at our office and you don’t hear from us within five (5) days, please call our office.
