Don’t Wait! We Are Ready to Safely Treat You.

Your health is our priority and we’re taking all necessary precautions. Patients who have delayed emergency care due to the fear of exposure to COVID-19 have seen easily treatable conditions become life-threatening.

Additional measures are in place to guarantee your safety and health:

  • Mandatory masking
  • Daily staff monitoring
  • Elevated cleaning protocols
  • Dedicated staff to triage patients
  • Separate non-COVID-19 patient area

Athletes Make Fast-Track Out of the Emergency Department

As a top resource to athletes of all levels in our community – from professional and Olympic athletes to weekend warriors and active seniors – Weiss has a “fast-track” athletic injuries program in the emergency department.

Now recreational athletes that end up in the Weiss ED will receive the same concierge-level service that our team partners enjoy. Our streamlined process will help our local athletes have support and guidance for their plan of care.
