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.

As a precaution:

• Patients will 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 such as washing your hands often or using a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands and maintain social distancing of at least 6 feet.

If you have a fever or symptoms of a respiratory illness, please reach out to reschedule your appointment:
