We have enhanced our already strict infection control protocols. The most obvious will be limiting the number of people in the office by intentionally spacing appointments to minimize patient-to-patient contact. Team members will have enhanced personal protective equipment (PPE) and medical grade air purifiers have been placed throughout the office.
Please be advised that for the next few weeks, we will need to prioritize patients with the greatest needs. We will do our best to accommodate everyone, but many appointments will need to be rearranged in order to resume operations safely.
For everyone’s safety, we have instituted the following protocol:
Pre-screening. At this time, patients who have been diagnosed, been around anyone that has been diagnosed, been out of the country in the past six weeks or are experiencing respiratory illness, fever, body aches, loss of smell or taste will not be able to be seen until cleared.
Upon arrival. Appointments should be attended alone. If you need a driver, please have them wait in the parking garage to minimize people in our offices. The following will be required prior to being seen:
- Your temperature will be taken
- Use of hand sanitizer
- Your written consent
All doctors and staff will be wearing enhanced personal protective equipment (PPE). All surfaces will be disinfected on an increased frequency with medical grade disinfectants after each appointment. For all patients undergoing surgical procedures or other procedures where anesthetic is required, we are now assessing a fee of $35 per visit charge. All other visits required a $15 per visit charge.
Upon exiting. You will again use hand sanitizer and replace your personal facial covering. Payment arrangements will have been made beforehand. Receipts and next appointment information will be forwarded to you.
