"The staff is friendly, helpful, and personable. I felt like our concerns were heard, procedures explained in a way we could understand. Doctor Quickert's no-nonsense approach was refreshing after having not-so-great treatment from others. We felt instantly comfortable and informed after our very first visit."

-J.N.

"My wife followed Dr. Quickert to his practice because he is an outstanding physician and is compassionate about caring for his patients. We absolutely recommend Dr. Quickert and his practice."

-Doug P.

-Debbie H.

"I have enjoyed my appointments with Julie. I am feeling back to my normal self!"

-Deanna D.

"I see Julie and Holly for BioTE pellets. They found a thyroid condition I didn’t even know I had. I was skeptical at first but I couldn’t be happier with how I have been feeling since I started treatment. I lost 25 lbs. with my first 3 rounds of pellets and my energy levels, sex drive, and sleep have all improved so much! Thank you for all the wonderful care I received from all the staff."

-Cynthia R.

"Dr. Quickert is so good at what he does and explains everything very well and even gives recommendations. The whole team is so nice and helpful always makes me feel more comfortable. I am constantly recommending Dr. Quickert to my friends. Thanks for being there when I needed you!!"

-Deedee F.

"The Premier staff is exceptional and the treatment and follow-up from Dr. Quickert were better than expected. The outcome is better than expected and the process was enjoyable"

-Brad B.

Port / Central Line / PICC Line Placement/Removal

Overview

A Port is a device that is implanted under the skin and provides access to your veins. The port can stay in place permanently, if necessary. When not in use, the only care a port requires is flushing once a month with a special saline solution to keep blood clots from forming in the line. Ports are implanted by an interventional radiologist. Two incisions are made, a small one near the collarbone and a larger incision usually a few inches below the first incision where a reservoir pocket is formed. Both of these incisions are sewn with dissolvable sutures and covered with a special sterile adhesive that will fall off or can be removed as the skin heals.

When the port is accessed, a special needle is placed through the skin into the reservoir. A catheter under the skin connects the reservoir to a large vein, usually in the chest. This allows you to receive medication, blood, or nutrition or to have lab samples taken.

A Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) is a thin, long, soft plastic tube that functions as an intravenous (IV) line. A PICC allows your nurses and doctors to administer medications and fluids on a frequent basis. A PICC can remain in place for as long as you need IV therapy.

Typically the radiologist will insert the PICC into a large vein in your arm and guide the catheter up into the main vein near your heart where there is rapid blood flow. The PICC is secured in place and covered with a sterile dressing. An x-ray is taken to assure that the catheter is in the right location. Inserting the PICC usually takes approximately 20-40 minutes to complete. Most patients feel little or no discomfort during this procedure. A local anesthetic may be used.
