Anticoagulation Clinics
Helping You Safely Manage Blood Thinner Medications
MyMichigan Health's Anticoagulation Clinics help patients safely manage medications used to prevent and treat blood clots. Our team provides blood testing, medication monitoring, dosing guidance, and education to help you get the most benefit from your treatment.
Blood clots occur when blood cells stick together (coagulate) and form a blockage inside a blood vessel. If a clot blocks blood flow, it can lead to serious health problems, including heart attacks, strokes and other heart and vascular conditions.
Blood thinning medications help reduce the risk of these complications. Our goal is to help you safely manage your medication, reduce risks, and provide peace of mind.
