Our offices use paperless technology to greatly reduce paper useage and waste. When you first arrive, you will be asked to complete a computer-based check-in system, rather than filling out forms. The system is easy to use and much quicker than paper forms. It also eliminates the waste of lengthy new patient forms. Our staff is available to assist you if you need help with the computer check-in.
Virtually all our paper products come from recycled sources and are then recycled again.
Our cardboard boxes and packing materials from supplies received are transferred directly from our offices to another company who re-uses them. This is a great way to recycle without any energy expenditure or footprint on the environment.
Our IV bags are special bags that use less plastic and are biodegradable, becoming carbon dioxide and water upon inceneration.
Instead of commercial cleaning solutions, we use a state of the art ozone cleaning system and natural cleaners like vinegar, baking soda, and hydrogen peroxide.
Our climate control system does not cycle on when the office is unoccupied, thereby reducing energy useage.
These and other environmentally friendly processes are utilized to provide less impact on the planet while providing the most natural clinic environment possible for our patients and staff.
