Our anticoagulation clinic (ACC) works with patients who take anticoagulants, which are blood thinners like warfarin (Coumadin®). Blood thinners help keep clots from forming in the veins and arteries. 

This is important because clots block the flow of blood and can have serious consequences. A clot deep in the legs, called a deep vein thrombosis, can travel to the lungs, which can be fatal. Clots in the heart or brain can cause a heart attack or stroke. 

The most common sign you need blood thinners is atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat that increases your chances of having a stroke.

Our services include:

  • Medication management
  • Surgeries and procedures management
  • Consultations with pharmacists and nurse practitioners
  • Patient education
  • Prothrombin time testing

We work closely with your other health care providers. This helps make sure that all your care is coordinated and that your health care needs are met.
