  • If you are experiencing any of these symptoms or have been to a CDC high risk area within the last 14 days, but still feel that you need to be seen, please call our office. Our medical staff will determine whether you will need to reschedule.
  • As much as possible, please limit the number of friends/family members accompanying you for your appointment.
