Anticoagulation Management Service
Anticoagulation Management Service (Coumadin® Clinic)
The service is run by Cheyenne Regional Pharmacists under the Medical Direction of Dr. Andrea Thornton and in conjunction with your primary care physician.
We provide a convenient, comprehensive and complete Coumadin® (warfarin) management service. Our goals include keeping your PT/INR therapeutic, coordinating therapy with changes in your medication, diet and health condition, and reducing complications and hospitalizations.
Blood is tested by using a simple finger-stick machine with results in seconds. The pharmacist will then adjust the dose as needed.
This is an ambulatory outpatient service that is located on the 3rd floor of the Hospital in Room 3107. We see patients on a referral basis from your primary care physician.
Our hours of operation are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 8 a.m – 3 p.m. We also see patients on Monday and Friday on an as needed basis.
A progress note is sent to the primary care physician and our medical director after each visit for review. We are available to manage any patient on warfarin, enoxaparin and fondaparinux for conditions such as Atrial Fibrillation, Stroke, MI, Cardiomyopathy, DVT, PE, Valve Replacement and other conditions that require anticoagulants.
Contact us at 633-6854 or 633-7970 for referral and information.
