YOUR HEALTH IS OUR PRIMARY CONCERN
CoronaVirus (COVID-19) is a highly contagious disease. A person can feel absolutely normal and possibly infect others for 2-10 days. The only way we could see patients in the office, even though they have no symptoms, would be if everyone in the waiting room donned a mask, were separated from other patients by 6 feet, and the staff donned personal protective equipment (PPE) which are scarce and hard to obtain at this time. You may see other practices that are staying opened but we feel that this does not consider the patient first. We feel that coming to the office at this time places the patient at more risk than if they stayed at home. Therefore, for the time being, we will take care of our patients in the safest manner possible by using E-Visits (also called Telehealth), which is the preferable way for us to evaluate and treat you. This requires that you have a computer at home for us to evaluate you. The second best way is to talk to you on the telephone. We will send in your prescriptions, order your labs and do our very best to accommodate you. Please call us at (352) 371-0301 to schedule your electronic visit or call, or for any questions you may have. The current CDC recommendations are to stay at home if you feel well, stay at home if you’re sick and isolating yourself from your family, and if you’re very sick, go to the closest emergency room. Please check CDC.com for the most current recommendations. We appreciate your patience.
