News and Announcements

Flu Season is here…

…and with a bang!  Flu is prevalent and widespread in the South.  It’s not too late to get vaccinated, but remember, it takes about 2 weeks for the vaccine to be effective, so if you’ve already been exposed, it won’t prevent illness.  If you would like more information, visit the CDC flu site (http://www.cdc.gov/flu/index.htm) or ask your doctor.  One thing to remember:  antiviral treatment, such as Tamiflu, is not always needed or recommended.  If you have questions about this, ask your doctor.

On-line Access

UMC has the ability to allow you (our patients) on-line access to some of your medical information.  This is a new system and we are all learning about it.  If you would like to have access to secure messaging and access to some of your clinical information, please talk to the staff on your next visit about signing up for this new service.
