A major healthcare provider in Prince William County and Manassas will resume regular procedures today.
Novant Health / UVA Health System Prince William Medical Center in Manassas and Haymarket Medical Center in Haymarket tells us:
Novant Health UVA Health System, an integrated network of physician clinics, outpatient services and medical centers in northern and central Virginia, is pleased to announce that it is currently offering all services that were paused in mid-March due to COVID-19.
Services now available include non-time sensitive and non-emergency surgeries and procedures, pediatric well checks, routine care office visits and care for both chronic diseases and acute issues. These are in addition to the medically necessary, time-sensitive procedures – and imaging, labs and other appointments to support them – that resumed on May 11.
“At the advice of our physicians, and on behalf of our patients who have delayed care, we have thoughtfully decided to resume these services,” said Al Pilong, chief executive officer, Novant Health UVA Health System. “We continue to see promising declines in the number of COVID-19 cases in our health districts, and our team stands ready to care for the community.”
While virtual care options are still available at NovantHealthUVA.org/virtual, Novant Health UVA Health System has added heightened safety measures for in-person visits, including:
–Temperature screenings for everyone entering the health system’s facilities
–Universal masking
–Enhanced cleaning processes
–Increased resources to infection prevention teams
–Preadmission testing for procedures and surgeries, which includes testing for COVID-19
–Lowering the number of patients allowed in clinics at one time
–Reducing the use of waiting rooms
–Limiting visitors in facilities“As we reintroduce services and begin to find a new normal after COVID-19, our utmost priority remains the safety of our team members and our patients,” Pilong said. “We look forward to continuing to bring the best of health to our communities – and the quality care they’ve come to expect from us – now that it is safe to do so for all services across our entire health system.”
Urgent patient needs will continue to be prioritized. The Novant Health UVA Health System team will be contacting patients directly to reschedule services that were previously delayed. Patients with questions should contact their provider.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
