suture kits

Last update I hope.

Can’t put 4 by 4 s in the sterilized kits due to sterilization standards. Grab ten pack or individual ones when setting things up. This will not change with our current equipment.

Grab a disposable drape if you want one at the moment as they are separate. This is the best way to go at the moment.

Please be happy that these changes have happened. Just seeing if you are reading this!!…although I am serious.

Hi all,

Please be aware that the NPLC in Huntsville is now seeing patients that signed up to join the clinic last summer. They have a very structured intake process and their wait time to “get in the door” has grown.

Patients are being told to “go sign up with them” which is fine but be aware of the wait time to an appointment.

I encountered another patient in Huntsville ER tonight ( seeking benzo renewals) that was told he would get in “very soon” by the doc that referred him there.

Just a little info to help inform patients with.
