If you are on a HMO insurance, your primary care physician will have to refer you over to AVA Vascular in Murrieta for chronic wound care treatment. Dr Nik Patel is able to assess wounds and provide treatment that has proven to heal many patients.  If you are on Medicare or PPO Insurance, we are able to see you without a referral and can begin initial consults via telehealth.

We can most definitely provide patients with telehealth appointments however, the actual procedure and part of the process will involve the doctor meeting the patient in person. Initial consults with patients and their families can be done via telehealth. We accept all Medicare and PPO insurances at this time.

If you have a scheduled date for knee surgery do not cancel it. However if you wish to get a second opinion, please call in and make an appointment with our doctor to see if you qualify for GAE. Information on GAE can be found HERE

At this time we do not accept Medical and HMO Insurance policies. However we can take all PPO insurances and Medicare.

Yes this is a same day procedure and you can most definitely travel from anywhere to Murrieta for this treatment. We have some great hotels near our facility.

We are not far from the famous Murrieta Hot Springs and Temecula Wine Country. You can most definitely make this a family trip.

Closest airports to us are Ontario International Airport, John Wayne Airport in Orange County and for some LAX may be the best option.
