A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Dougherty’s office at (408) 264-1555 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

49 generic and 53 brand-name prescriptions · $3,150 in drug cost.
