The form below is a convenient way to contact Dr. Vapnek for non-urgent medical questions. Dr. Vapnek generally checks his email on a daily basis, usually after the office has closed, so you can expect a response within 24 hours in most cases. Depending upon your wishes, this response can be via email or via telephone. Remember that electronic communication is not 100% reliable nor is it guaranteed to be 100% confidential, so use your judgment and do not hesitate to pick up the telephone if you do not receive a response within an appropriate period of time. The types of issues that are appropriate for email include routine medical questions, queries about recent articles you may have read, or anything else that is not an emergency. You can also request prescription refills or simply let the doctor know how you are doing.
