Port / central line placement or removal
If a port or central line has been recommended for your treatment, a specialist can walk you through what's next. A General Medicine clinician reviews your history and builds a referral request, so your in-person visit starts without delay. If something's missing, we handle it before you go.

Get ongoing support anytime
Medications, labs, follow-ups, and referrals — we can coordinate it all. And because your history moves with you, you're never starting from scratch.
All your care in one place. That’s the General Medicine difference.
We help you understand your options, connect you to the right clinicians, manage prescriptions, coordinate any needed evaluations, and keep an eye on your overall health along the way. It’s comprehensive care that looks at the full picture — your goals, your history, your lifestyle — and makes it simple to move forward with confidence.
What to know before your port / central line placement and removal
If you've already had a treatment plan that calls for this kind of access, we'll make sure your specialist has it before your visit, so they can walk you through what it means right away. If you haven't had that plan yet, your specialist can evaluate you at this visit and help you figure out the right next step.
A port or central line is a small device placed under the skin, or a line placed in a vein, to make it easier to draw blood or give treatments like chemotherapy — done under local anesthesia
Most people go home the same day, with instructions for keeping the site clean while it heals
Your specialist will also go over risks, alternatives, and answer your questions before anything is decided
Not sure if this is the right next step for you?
Book a visit with a General Medicine clinician first — and they'll help you figure out what's next.

Hear from people who've had General Medicine match them with the right specialist — and stay in their corner every step of the way.
“I had low testosterone all the way around so I wanted a referral so I could get properly tested. I'm now getting what I need and leaving my primary care doc in the weeds.”

“General Medicine reached out to a local neurologist for me and got me an in-person appointment for the same week. My PCP through General Medicine continued to reach out to me to follow up, and I felt very supported the entire time.”

“They always treat me with respect and do their best to get me treated quickly. They arrange for all tests and doctor visits when they refer you to specialists. Plus, they take my Medicaid insurance!”
