COVID-19 UPDATE

Dear Patient,

Due to the recent COVID-19 healthcare crisis, I have made a few changes in my practice. 

MY PRACTICE WILL BE A HYBRID OF TELEMEDICINE AND FACE-TO-FACE CARE.

• If you are uncomfortable coming in to the office, I will be happy to have a virtual appointment. It can be an audiovisual encounter through my practice software or FaceTime, Google video, WhatsApp etc. EVEN AN OLD FASHIONED PHONE CALL….

THE OFFICE WILL BE OPEN AS USUAL MONDAY - FRIDAY IN BOTH HACKETTSTOWN AND NEWTON LOCATIONS. 

NEW PATIENTS, ESTABLISHED PATIENTS THAT NEED TO BE SEEN IN PERSON WILL BE SEEN. 

WE REQUEST PATIENTS THAT HAVE TRAVELLED TO HIGH RISK COUNTRIES, HAVE FEVER, COUGH, COLD AND OTHER RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS TO SEE THEIR PRIMARY CARE DOCTORS AND NOT COME TO OUR OFFICE. I CAN DO A VIRTUAL VISIT WITH THESE PATIENTS.

We have been proactively screening patients since the past 2 weeks by telephone before they come to the office. The exam rooms are thoroughly disinfected after every patient. The staff uses masks and other precautions at all times.
