Appointments are Required
Please avoid scheduling your treatment too close to other activities that may be delayed and affect your ability to arrive on time. This will shorten wait times for you and help you get through your appointment more quickly. We encourage patients to bring one visitor to sit with them during treatment. Additional visitors will be asked to wait in the lobby of the Infusion Center. Because many patients are sensitive to strong scents, we ask that you not bring food with strong odors and refrain from wearing perfume or cologne. Only service animals are permitted.
