Hospital Care
The doctors at the Northshire campus will refer you to the hospital of your choice. In most cases, they refer adult patients to Southwestern Vermont Medical Center's Hospitalist Program for hospital care. Hospitalists are specialists in caring for adults in the hospital. The SVMC hospitalists communicate regularly with the doctors at the Northshire Campus.
House calls
The doctors prefer to see patients in the office, where diagnostic and treatment facilities are available. On occasion, however, a house call may be appropriate for a housebound patient. If you feel a house call is necessary, please consult your doctor.
