In-Office Pharmacy

Welcome to our in-office pharmacy, an integral part of our concierge medical care services. At Personal ConciergMed (PCM), located in Coral Gables, Florida, we understand that managing your health should be as convenient and seamless as possible. That's why we've incorporated an in-office pharmacy directly within our primary care facility, offering you a streamlined and personalized approach to your medication needs. The in-office pharmacy, led by Dr. Lianet Tuduri, integrates seamlessly with our urgent care, in-office labs, and in-office imaging services, providing a comprehensive healthcare solution that ensures your treatment is as efficient and convenient as possible.

What are pharmacy services?

Medications often play a vital role in curing or managing acute and chronic health conditions. They’re also a significant treatment for pain relief. Pharmacies fulfill your prescriptions and provide the over-the-counter medicines your doctor recommends. 

Personal ConciergMed has an in-house dispensary for generic and some branded prescription medicines. Branded medicines are those that drug companies develop. Generic medicines contain the same active ingredients as many branded medicines but at lower costs.

New drugs are exclusive to the drug company that’s invested in developing them. They’re covered by a patent protection period that gives them time to recoup the costs of discovering and developing new drugs. After patent protection expires, generic drug companies can apply for FDA approval for their own cheaper versions.

PCM’s pharmacy negotiates significant discounts with suppliers, enabling them to provide medications at cost without extra charge. The pharmacy stocks a comprehensive range of medicines but does not dispense benzodiazepines (tranquilizers) or chronic/extended-use opioids (powerful painkillers), which present a high risk of addiction.

What are the benefits of having an in-office pharmacy at your primary care doctor's office?

Having an in-office pharmacy at your primary care doctor's office, like at PCM, offers several key benefits that enhance the patient healthcare experience:

• Immediate access to medications
• Enhanced medication management
• Medication counseling
• Convenient and time-saving
• Increased medication adherence
• Cost savings

Patients with acute illnesses like respiratory infections and stomach flu and chronic diseases such as thyroid disorders and heart disease can all benefit from PCM’s in-office pharmacy.

What are some of the most common prescription medications, and how does the pharmacy integrate into the patient healthcare experience at Personal ConciergMed?

The most common prescription medications typically include antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, antihypertensives, statins for cholesterol management, and medications for diabetes management, among others. 

At PCM, the in-office pharmacy is an integral part of the patient care experience. This integrative approach ensures that the pharmacy is not just a facility for medication dispensing but a critical component of the overall healthcare strategy at PCM, aimed at achieving the best possible health outcomes for each patient.
