CLINIC UPDATES

ATTN: INCLEMENT WEATHER IS HERE!

PLEASE REVIEW POLICIES BELOW!

11/23/22

VECTOR will be closed Thursday, 11/24/22, and Friday, 11/25/22, in

solidarity with our Native friends, family and patients. We will

return to clinic on Monday, 11/29/22, for normal business hours.

11/14/22

In anticipation of bad weather and possible hazardous

driving conditions, we encourage some patients to call to

SWITCH YOUR APPOINTMENTS TO TELEMEDICINE

if you are comfortable doing so and only if you have

consented to using telemedicine in your care. We advise this

for some appointments between now and the end of February.

If you are unsure if your appointment can be done over telemedicine, please call and ask. As a general rule, new patient appointments, any appointments that would require an exam and appointments to access services that can only be done in person (new minor HRT, injections, injection teaching, lab draw, etc), are not appropriate for telemedicine. Appointments for medication refills, lab review, review of some test

results and evaluation of some acute illnesses can be performed over telemedicine. If you have not consented to telemedicine in your care and you would like to, please call and we can help you get that done.

IMPORTANT POLICIES

For those that have not consented to telemedicine or have concerns that cannot be done virtually, we will call you to reschedule your appointment when we are back to the office.
