First fully-integrated COVID-19 prevention, testing & therapy center opens
Posted
Concierge physician, Tyler Southwell, created a new division of his practice — Southwellness COVID Solutions — late last year and has opened a new facility in Phoenix dedicated specifically to COVID-19 prevention, testing and therapy.
The new 2,600-square-foot center is considered “one of a kind” according to a press release.
The private office is the first and only fully-integrated outpatient COVID-19 treatment facility in the county, the press release stated. It has a PuriFi air filtration system and best-of-class protocols for virus prevention.
The PuriFi system eliminates 99.99% of COVID surrogates from the air in less than 10 minutes. Ozone and UV sterilization is used throughout the office, which has multiple testing rooms, equipped with patient-friendly IV chairs.
A socially-distanced ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new office at 10585 N. Tatum Blvd., suite D130 was held on Feb. 17.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony itself was designed around the pandemic.
Attendance was limited to a handful of guests while others are encouraged to schedule appointments and tours and watch the ceremony online.
Dr. Southwell has led the testing and treatment of more than 10,000 patients since the pandemic began and consults physicians and organizations across the nation. SCS has been offering free community testing and sourcing PPE throughout the state. The new office is staffed by 30 healthcare professionals who have been thoroughly trained in all aspects of COVID-19 care, the press release stated.
“Our positive rates in Phoenix have been extremely high and consumers don’t always know where to turn for accurate information, ways to avoid the virus, and early treatment, “ said Dr. Southwell. “Our new all-in-one medical office fills that need. SCS tests are accurate and rapid. We help people who test positive recover more quickly and provide immune-boosting treatments to those who test negative, but are concerned about staying safe and healthy.”
