Due to our concern for accurate communication and information, we ask that you call our main office during business hours for all question and inquiries.

Making Appointments
Lone Star Oncology clinic hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 9 a.m. Saturday and Sunday for patients who need shots. Appointments are scheduled for follow-up physicians visits, laboratory studies, chemotherapy treatments, nutritional consultation, adjuvant therapies, and research studies. Please designate at which clinic you would like to be seen, and make sure you have the time, date, and location for your next appointment.

Rescheduling/Missed Appointments
Adhering to a treatment schedule is an important element in the effectiveness of treatment. If an appointment can't be kept, advance notice is requested and rescheduling is required.

After Hours/Emergencies
An LSO doctor or associate is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Travis County Medical Exchange, at 512.483.9036, will page the physician on-call.

Prescription Refills
Many prescriptions may be filled and refilled by telephone simply by calling your pharmacist, the earlier in the day the better, with the name of the medicine and the prescription number (found on the medicine bottle); the pharmacist will contact LSO for approval. However, certain controlled medications may not be filled by phone; they require a special written prescription that must be picked up at LSO. It is important that patients check their medication supplies before weekends and holidays.

Admitting Privileges
LSO doctors care for patients at the following hospitals:
The Seton System: Seton NW, Seton Main, and Brackenridge.
Columbia-St. David's System: St. David's, Round Rock, South Austin, and North Austin. Georgetown Hospital.
