Practice Message from Virginia Cancer Specialists – Patient Message Re: Updated Electronic Medical Record (EMR) System

August 10, 2020

To Our Virginia Cancer Specialists Patients:

We here at Virginia Cancer Specialists take great pride in patient care.  Because we want to be the best for you, we are updating our current electronic medical record (EMR) to a new and improved one on Monday August 17th! This new EMR will allow for a more efficient streamlined process for the entire practice.

As with any new process, there may be some challenges along the way. Please be patient with us as we work through this transition.  There will also be additional folks in the office assisting with this process.  Our support teams will be following the same guidelines as the rest of the staff to keep everyone safe (e.g. masks, twice daily temperature checks, hand sanitizing, etc).

Thank you for your patience as we work through this process!
