Yes. We are still available to see you at all of our primary care locations. However, to protect against the spread of infectious disease, we are asking ALL patients to complete the text check-in process prior to visits. This will minimize the need to handle paper and writing utensils upon your visit. If you have completed all of the text check-in tasks ahead of time, you can take a seat in the waiting room without needing to visit the front desk.

Moreover, because our goal is to ensure our clinics continue to be safe places, we are implementing new visitation restrictions. Visitors are defined as “essential, vital, or necessary to the patient’s/client’s/resident’s care and well-being.” Caregivers accompanying patients to the clinic will be restricted to one person per patient, and will be screened based on CDC guidelines to make certain they do not infect others at our clinic.

A video visit is appropriate for most evaluations. If you start a video visit and your provider determines that you need an in-person visit, one will be arranged for you. A telephone visit is by phone only (no video), and is used if you do not have video capability. Providers can use video or telephone visits to address anything from simple illnesses (like a cough or cold) to more complicated conditions (like diabetes or heart disease).If further testing (such as blood work) or consultations are necessary, we will provide a referral and further instructions.
