Pharmacy

We’re pleased to provide pharmacy services to all our patients. You can fill prescriptions at no cost from any of our pharmacy locations. If you have a prescription from a TRICARE network or non-network provider, you may fill it here, as long as it’s available on our Basic Core Formulary. Call us at 757-953-0258 to see if your drug is available. We provide up to a 90-day supply for most drugs.

Our Military Pharmacy Services
