Patient Precautions
- All patients are pre-screened durig online check-in or at the door for any symptoms or possible exposures and a temperature reading is taken before being allowed to enter.
- We ask that patients choose only Telemedicine options, or postpone and reschedule in-office examinations if they are suspecting covid19 infection, unless you are coming in for COVID19 testing- via our urgent care.
Telemedicine
Telemedicine creates the opportunity for you to have an interactive visit with your provider through Video Chat or Telephone call from home. We will continue delivering convenient and quality care through these methods to all of our patients.
During this pandemic, insurance companies are treating telemedicine appointments the same as an in-office visit.
