We hope you and yours are continuing to stay well during the novel coronavirus pandemic. As Georgia begins relaxing restrictions on businesses, we are now able resume offering elective surgical procedures and preventive/wellness services for our patients. We will begin this transition by scheduling wellness appointments for patients with overdue items first, giving them priority over those whose items have not yet come due. We will also continue to give scheduling priority to those patients with urgent needs.
Curb-side service will continue to be utilized to minimize risk to our staff and clients at this time. As curb-side services take considerably more time per patient, our schedule availability will continue to be somewhat limited. Your continued patience as we adapt our scheduling procedures to accommodate these recent changes is greatly appreciated.
Curb-Side Basics
In an effort to safely provide services to our patients and clients during this unprecedented time, we will be utilizing a curb-side service model for the immediate future. Our hope is that these measures will enable us to provide care for our patients throughout the length of the COVID-19 pandemic while keeping our staff safe, healthy, and able to serve our community.
