COVID-19 Update
Clinic Reopened
UAMS is planning a cautious, carefully-planned reopening of clinics, radiologic testing and elective surgeries and procedures. All patients will be required to wear a mask and pass a screening test. Patients undergoing a procedure or surgery will be tested for COVID-19 within 48 hours.
Telemedicine Visits Encouraged
In an effort to keep our patients and health care workers safe, we offer virtual visits and phone visits for new and existing patients.

If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, think you may have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, or have tested positive for COVID-19, call the UAMS appointment center at 501-686-8000 to reschedule your appointment. You may also ask if your appointment can be done by phone or video.

What to Expect at Your Appointment
UAMS has safety measures in place to protect our patients and employees. Everyone who comes to UAMS is required to wear a mask and pass a health screening before entering the building. You will also have your temperature taken. Please wear a clean mask to your clinic visit, and do not remove it until asked to do so by a UAMS employee.
Learn more about the safety measures we are taking.
Outpatient Visitor Guidelines
Patients must come to their visit alone. A friend or family member may come to an appointment only if the patient is under 18 or is not mentally or physically able to go to the appointment alone. You are welcome to include a friend or family member in your appointment by phone or video chat.
If you need a wheelchair from your car to your appointment, transport staff is available. Contact your clinic and they will help to arrange this for you.
Please visit our COVID-19 resources to learn more about what to expect at your appointment.
