APPOINTMENT REMINDERS: we have switched to an email/text notification of your appointment and ask that when you receive it you click the button to confirm. You will no longer receive a reminder phone call.
Road works are in effect this fall:
PLEASE READ BEFORE COMING TO YOUR APPOINTMENT: these precautions reduce the risk of Covid-19 for everyone concerned and allow us to remain open to treat urgent pain conditions. *All patients coming to our office at this time are requested to wear a MEDICAL MASK. This is a directive from Public Health. It does help to reduce the infection rate. *Wash your hands just before you come. *Hand sanitizer is available to use immediately upon entering the office. *Please observe physical distancing at reception. *If you come early, after you let us know you have arrived, please wait outside on the patio or in your car until you are called inside. *If someone is accompanying you, unless they are needed to assist you they should preferably remain in the car while you are treated, in order to reduce the number of people in the waiting room. |
