We take acute DVT seriously at Ultrasound First. Patients can now have a DVT study same day with stat read. Patients have results before they leave our office. We will hold the patient until we have contacted and relayed the results to the ordering provider. We can then relay instructions to your patient.
Upper or lower extremity we have you covered with registered vascular sonographers and vascular trained radiologists.
The most common cause of delay of service for our patients is traffic. Just fax an order to our office and we will call the patient to schedule them. Or you can simply call us and send the patient directly over with the order. Either way we are going to scan your patient as soon as they arrive and get you the results you need.
In an informal online poll sonographers, PA/NP, and Doctors believe that patients should be scanned for DVT within a few hours of the order, not several days.
Try us out and you will not be disappointed.
Dr. Cox.
