The Protime Clinic at Alexandria Clinic is a quick and easy way to monitor Coumadin therapy – a blood-thinning medication. Patients with a variety of diagnoses including: history of heart disease, stroke, deep vein thrombosis and artificial valve replacement require Coumadin to minimize the likelihood of blood clots.

Our Protime Clinic uses the finger-stick technique to test the ratio of medicine to their blood, allowing the patient to avoid having blood drawn from their arm.
