Vascular And Interventional Radiology Center

OUR FACILITY – WHAT SETS US APART:

(a) Exceptional Service: Superior patient care including: dedicated scheduling department offering convenient appointment times; availability of same day appointments in most cases; accommodation for special-need patients; and rapid delivery of images and reports through integrated PACS filmless operations and Physician’s Portal. Further, VIC’s unique outpatient setting provides continuity of care for patients in comparison to hospital. Patients will see the same care providers, the VIC staff knows the patients better, and physicians spend more time with patients before and after procedures. The faster procedure times will allow patients to resume their normal activities sooner.

(b) Integration: Our facilities are capable of providing an extensive range of radiology modalities which benefits referring physicians and patients frustrated by excessive travel time. Imaging and vascular/interventional procedures can all be performed at a single destination. All of our sites are fully integrated via EMR which centralizes all pertinent patient information and image archiving.

(c) Patient Friendly Environment: As an outpatient facility, our physicians can efficiently perform the requested procedures without delaying or compromising patient care. We are freeway adjacent and easily accessible, with patient parking just steps from the main entry. Flexible scheduling reduces patient waiting times thus improving satisfaction from patients and referring physicians alike. VIC’s hotel-like ambiance was designed specifically for patient comfort. Since VIC’s staff sees patients from beginning to end of service, a stronger relationship is fostered between both.

(d) Accreditation: VIC has achieved accreditation from The American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities, Inc. AAAASF was established in 1980. The primary mission is to ensure the highest quality patient care in the ambulatory surgery setting. AAAASF is unique among accrediting agencies in protecting patients in an office-based surgery (OBS) setting by enforcing the following strict requirements: (1) surgeons must have hospital privileges for any procedure that is performed; (2) the use of Anesthesia professionals for deeper levels of anesthesia; (3) safe surgical environment, equipment, drugs, etc. through delineated standards; (4) OBS to adhere to Hospital standards; (5) peer review (peer oversight) and tracks data (complications, mortalities, etc. with extensive data covering over 2 million procedures).
