Electronic Medical Records System
Utilizing our state of the art Electronic Medical Record System, each physician has complete patient data (immunizations, allergies, lab results, etc.) at their fingertips to enable them to monitor your health needs more closely. If you call after hours, all physicians “on-call” can access this same information, thus providing excellent, all-inclusive care for our patients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This robust Medical Record System also enables our office to electronically transmit prescriptions and refills directly to the pharmacy of your choice.
Our philosophy is always focused on your well-being. The utilization of our new medical record system affords Glen Lake Family Practice the ability to electronically transmit prescriptions and medication refills directly to the pharmacy of your choice.
Services
We are pleased to announce that we provide laboratory services on site, including phlebotomy (blood draws), which may be completed at the time of your visit.
Elliot Physician Network primary care providers recently opened a “Weekend After-Hours Clinic” on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Briarwood Primary Care (located near Elliot Hospital at 445 Cypress Street, Suite 5 in Manchester), allowing their patients the flexibility of being seen for acute matters over the weekend. A rotating schedule of on-call EPN providers will determine which doctor a patient sees at the clinic. If necessary, the physician on-call will follow up with the patient’s primary care provider. Patients access the clinic by calling their physician’s office. The Nurse or the on-call provider will discuss the patient’s symptoms and make a referral to the After-Hours Clinic.
All patients new to our practice are asked to fill out a Pre-Registration Form, which is sent via U.S. Mail in their new patient information packet, and can also be downloaded and printed from this site. Please click here to download the Pre-Registration Form.

After your information is received, it will be sent electronically to your PCP to review and order. Once reviewed and approved, staff will electronically transmit the refill notification to your pharmacy. This process usually requires 24-48 hours from the time of your initial call. How quickly your pharmacy fills the prescription depends on their refill policy and staffing. If you need a mail away prescription, please make sure that you contact us 2 weeks prior to running out to allow time for your request to be entered and your prescription returned.

Who will I see if I am hospitalized or my child is hospitalized?
Pediatric patients will be followed by either their own primary care physician or by one of the other family practice physicians.
Adults may be followed by one of the Elliot family practice physicians or by the Elliot Hospitalist Service. The Hospitalist service is composed of Board Certified Internal Medicine specialists who work closely with your primary care physician to provide the highest standard of care. The Hospitalist service can often provide superior care when minute-to-minute decisions need to be made regarding patient care. In case of a hospital admission, your physician will determine which service is more suitable. This decision is often made on a case-by-case basis. In regards to admission decisions, you are welcome to discuss your preferences or concerns with your primary care physician.
