It is not secret that Covid-19 (Coronavirus) has changed the practice of many healthcare providers, however, one thing that will never change is our dedication to continue providing care and compassion to those who need it most. Our goal is to keep those most vulnerable to the virus, such as elderly, diabetic, and immuno-compromised out of emergency rooms and urgent cares, therefore we are still seeing patients with urgent issues in-office. We have implemented several changes to our practice to ensure all patients are seen comfortably and safely. These changes include:

• Telemedicine: You can now experience your podiatry appointment from the comfort of your own home! This option is available to those seeking care for non-urgent issues, such as reviewing lab and MRI results, orthotic and procedure follow-up, and many more! No co-payment is required, new patients are included, as well as medicare patients – all that is needed is a computer or phone with a front-facing camera!
• Valet Medicine: This is a private and much safer way of seeing the doctor that minimizes contact with others and maintains the strictest standards of cleanliness through all necessary interactions.Patients who schedule a valet appointment are never kept in a waiting room with others, regardless of whether they have any symptoms. When you pull into the parking lot for your appointment, give us a call. Once your appointment is ready to begin, a medical assistant will come out to your car and get you.
• Patient Check-In Process: Upon entering our lobby, all patients’ temperatures will be checked and proper hand sanitation is required. Patients are advised to wear a mask upon their arrival. If needed, we have masks available for purchase for $2 each – proceeds will be donated to our “Mask and Glove Drive” which provides protective gear for local fire and police departments.
• Proper Sanitation & Social Distancing: Our staff is committed to sanitizing all high traffic and high touch areas such as door knobs, keyboards, pin pads, chairs, etc. at regular intervals. All patients in the waiting area are asked to sit 6 feet apart from one another, as well as our staff.

Now more than ever, our team is committed to serving our patients at the highest health and safety standards to further alleviate the threat of this pandemic. For questions or appointment booking, please call (562) 426-2551.
