Is Temi a QuickMD alternative?
Yes, for a refill or a new prescription of a non-controlled medication. For a refill, you submit a request with no appointment, a licensed physician reviews it within 48 hours, often sooner, and the prescription goes to the pharmacy you choose, for one flat $15 per medication.

Temi does not prescribe controlled substances, does not offer phone or video visits or urgent care, does not bill insurance, and does not treat patients under 18.
What if the physician says no?
The $15 pays for the physician's review, whatever the decision. A decision you did not want is not by itself a refund. If you are not satisfied with Temi's clinical service, tell the team why, and the Temi Satisfaction Guarantee refunds the review fee.
Can I keep my own pharmacy?
Yes. You name the pharmacy and the prescription goes there. Temi does not dispense or ship medication, so the pharmacy you already use, around the corner or by mail, stays your pharmacy.
Do I pay Temi again for every refill?
Not for every pickup. Each $15 request buys one physician review. If the physician approves, they decide the supply and how many pharmacy refills to put on it. Collecting a refill your pharmacy already holds costs nothing at Temi. When the prescription runs out, you submit a new $15 request.
How fast is the review?
A licensed physician reviews your request within 48 hours, often sooner. Timing depends on what the physician needs from you, so it is not a guaranteed turnaround.
Can Temi prescribe something new?
Yes. Temi's New Prescription service reviews a medication you have not taken before, for $79, or $0 with Temi Care.
What medications qualify?
Non-controlled maintenance medications. That covers blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, diabetes, acid reflux, asthma, antidepressants, birth control, and other routine prescriptions. Controlled substances and isotretinoin are refused at intake, before you pay anything.
Is there a membership, and do I need it?
No, you do not need one. The $15 on this page is the price without any membership. Temi Care is $449 a year and includes unlimited $0 prescription renewals for eligible non-controlled medications and a $0 New Prescription service. Your pharmacy still bills you for the medication either way.
What is the Temi Satisfaction Guarantee?
Tell the team you are not satisfied with Temi's clinical service and why, and the review fee is refunded. A decision you did not want is not by itself a refund, because the fee pays for the physician's review either way. Money Temi collected for something it did not deliver is always refunded.
Which states does Temi cover?
Temi reviews refills for patients physically located in Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Michigan, Missouri, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin. What matters is the state you are in when you submit the request, not where you used to see a doctor.
