COVID-19 Protocols
We are still following screening questionnaire, mandatory masking, and following isolation protocols to prevent the spread of any contagious infections like Covid-19 and Influenza. Your safety and our staff's safety is our top priority.
01/
Pre-Appointment Screening
Our office will communicate with patients prior to appointments to review new office protocols and ask pre-treatment screening questions. You will be contacted via phone or email, dependent upon your communication preferences. Physicians are able to do a variety of appointments such as telephone triage, tele-video visits, direct access to our isolation room, and in some cases quick examinations in the parking lot. We encourage you to cooperate with our staff so we can accommodate the best visit for you

Arrival
We ask patients to remain in their vehicles or wait in the building main lobby, until their scheduled appointment time to avoid congestion in the office waiting area, enabling social distancing. We are avoiding overcrowding in our reception area and strongly advising against walk ins unless absolutely necessary.
