Dear Valued Patients,
It is with heavy hearts that we must share some difficult news with you. After 18 years of dedicated service to our community, we regret to inform you that The Vein Center at Brinton Lake will be closing its doors on June 13th, 2024.
Since our inception, it has been our privilege to provide quality specialty care to patients suffering from venous diseases, with a particular focus on venous insufficiency. Your trust and confidence in our practice have been the driving force behind our commitment to excellence in healthcare.
However, the landscape of medical practice has shifted significantly in recent years. We have encountered ongoing financial pressures and declining reimbursements compounded by a workforce shortage. Despite our best efforts to navigate these challenges, we find ourselves facing the difficult reality of closure.
Please know that this decision was not made lightly, and it is with profound sadness that we must bid farewell to our cherished patients. Our primary concern now is ensuring that you receive the continuity of care you deserve.
We are dedicated to facilitating a smooth transition for all our patients. Our team will be available to assist you in transferring your care to another practice, should you require ongoing treatment or follow-up appointments.
After closing, your health records from this Practice will be transferred to Morgan Records Management, LLC (the “Records Custodian”). The Records Custodian will continue to maintain your records in accordance with applicable confidentiality and security standards and with other applicable laws. Your records will be destroyed no less than 7 years after the last date of services you received from this Practice.
If you wish to have a copy of your records sent to you or to another provider or facility, you may submit a written request to this office before June 13th, 2024. After June 13th, 2024 you may submit a request to the Records Custodian:
Morgan Records Management: Medical Records
Online: MorganRecordsManagement.com > Patient Records Requests > Request My Medical Records
Email: Medical@MorganRM.com
Phone 833-888-0061
Please Note:
– In accordance with applicable state law, you may be charged for the copying and transmittal of the records.
– There may be a transition period from the time we close to the time Morgan Records Management has access to your charts.
We understand that this news may come as a shock, and we apologize for any inconvenience it may cause. Please rest assured that our commitment to your well-being remains unwavering, even as we navigate this challenging chapter.
We extend our deepest gratitude for allowing us to be a part of your healthcare journey. It has been an honor and privilege to serve you.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office. We are here to support you during this transition in any way we can.
With warm regards and heartfelt appreciation,
