Covid-19 Update: We Will Remain Open & Safe

By Nadene Weil, Director of Patient & Physician Relations

Vascular Vein Centers is not affiliated with a hospital nor is it an ambulatory surgical center. As such we will remain open and will be available for your appointment.

We are aware of the order from Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis regarding elective surgeries. We read the order to include visits to hospitals, hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers. Vascular Vein Centers does not fall into these categories. As such we will remain open and will be available for your appointment.

If we receive further guidance from the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration and/or the Florida Department of Health, we will keep you posted. Your leg health and your safety are our first concerns. We are adhering to all CDC guidelines with disinfecting and patient distancing and have no more than a few people in an area at any given time.

Because the procedures performed in our offices do not involve the oral or respiratory systems, there is no increased risk for our patients. We appreciate your patience during times of anxiety and uncertainty. We are always available to answer your questions and allay your concerns.

Vascular Vein Centers continues to enhance our facility cleaning measures to ensure we are in compliance with the latest Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Florida Department of Health guidelines as a result of COVID-19.

Recent advisories include avoiding groups of larger than 10 people congregating in a small area. As a precaution:

• Patients will now be moved from the waiting area into a private exam room as quickly as possible resulting in just a few patients or less at once in our waiting areas
• We are disinfecting our common and high-touch areas including door handles no less than six times daily. 
• Each patient room is disinfected before and after every patient as always

You can be assured we are providing a safe environment for all of our patients. All of us play a part in stopping the spread of any virus by following simple personal habits as have been described. Please contact us at 407-244-8559 with any questions about our safety standards or your care. You can access the CDC guideline’s directly or through our website.

We remain vigilant, keeping up with daily updates to maintain a safe environment for you and our clinical staff.
