- We take samples for COVID-19 PCR in office and send to lab. Results are usually available in 24 hours
Precautionary measures in our office:
- When anyone calls to make appointments, we will be asking additional questions to screen you for exposure to COVID-19
- To minimize exposure to our patients we are implementing following policy with immediate effect:
- All patients are required to call ahead and schedule time for their visits.
- We will not be accepting walk-ins. No exceptions
- Furthermore we are segregating sick child visits and well child visits/physicals for next few weeks as follows:
- If your child has a mild sickness, please try to stay home and manage. We can give you advice over phone or use Tele-medicine when needed.
- If you feel your child is sick and needs to be seen, please make appointment and when you arrive for appointment, please stay in your car and give us a call from parking lot and we can get you directly to the exam room when ready.
- We appreciate your cooperation with these measures to keep our children safe.
- Guidelines on management and treatment of COVID-19 are constantly being updated by CDC and we will also adapt our approach as the guidelines as they are published.
- If you have a history of international travel or known COVID exposure, please follow latest CDC guidelines for quarantining and other precautions..
