With the recent events regarding the COVID-19, we are asking for your help to maintain a healthy and safe environment. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is recommending any patients, who are experiencing acute respiratory illness, including symptoms of fever, cough, shortness of breath, or the flu, to remain at home and to reschedule appointments.
