Your first appointment is an opportunity for your provider to get to know you, understand your concerns, and begin developing a personalized treatment plan.
After your appointment is scheduled, a link to complete all required intake forms will be sent to you by email. Please complete these forms within 48 hours so your provider has time to review your medical history, current medications, symptoms, concerns, and other important information before meeting with you.
During your initial visit, your provider will review the information you submitted, discuss your current concerns and treatment goals, ask additional questions as needed, and evaluate your overall health and mental health history. Depending on the type of service, your provider may also discuss previous treatments, medications, testing, screening results, or additional records that may be helpful.
Your provider will then work with you to discuss appropriate next steps and develop a treatment plan based on your individual needs. This may include medication management, therapy recommendations, additional evaluations or testing, referrals, or other treatment options offered through Awen Health & Wellness.
Initial appointments may take place in-office or by telehealth, depending on the service and provider.
If you are transferring from another provider, we will also include a Medical Records Transfer Form with your initial documents to complete.

How do I request a medication refill?
All medication refill requests should be sent directly to your provider through the patient portal.
Please submit refill requests at least 48 hours before you will run out of medication to allow your provider adequate time to review the request.
Refills are not guaranteed automatically. Your provider may need to review your chart, confirm that follow-up requirements have been met, or request an appointment before authorizing additional medication.
To help prevent interruptions in treatment, we encourage patients to monitor their medication supply and submit refill requests as early as possible.
