-This is a wonderful tool to help us provide care to patients under quarantine or who would prefer not to leave home during the COVID-19 outbreak.
-We will continue to see patients in the office who prefer or require an exam in office.
We are screening all patients before coming to the office for risk of exposure to COVID-19.
How this helps:
-high risk patients will be referred to appropriate testing sites
-referring high risk patients helps keep our office a low risk environment for contracting COVID-19
We are thoroughly cleaning each room, waiting areas and work spaces with cleaning materials effective against a broad spectrum of germs including human coronavirus.
