Infusion Services

Refer a Patient

Appointment availability

Updated November 2023.

Effective November 2023, we are currently not accepting outside referrals to Infusion Services. Patients needing an iron infusion or Remdesivir antiviral therapy can still be seen:

To refer your patient for an iron infusion, please refer them to Hematology; Hematology will then see your patient and write orders for the iron infusion. Iron infusions for restless leg syndrome should be referred to Sleep Medicine.
To request Remdesivir antiviral therapy for your COVID-19 patient, you must contact the Infectious Disease team first. Reach them via the hospital operator at 206-987-2000. The infusion clinic is able to provide this therapy to all pediatric patients who are at high risk for complications from COVID-19. The current COVID-19 variants are not responsive to monoclonal antibody therapy. Thus, we are no longer offering those infusions.

Questions? Please contact the Infusion APP at 206-987-8075 (Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
