Cardiovascular disease and not COVID-19 remains the #1 killer in America!
We are certainly living in unprecedented times and it seems we will be living like this for a very long haul. However, vascular and heart disease, not COVID-19, remains the number one killer in America, and we are seeing increasing deaths and complications as a result of delays in treatment and prevention of cardiovascular problems. Therefore, we do not recommend putting off scheduled follow-ups and testing and urge you to protect your self from the real killer in America.
In order to make everybody feel more comfortable with their visits, we are taking extra precautions to maintain a healthy clinic space for our patients and staff. We require everybody to wear face masks while in our offices. We also ask that you only bring one person with you to the appointment to avoid crowding and to keep social distancing in the waiting room. We check your temperature and ask that you use the hand sanitizers provided when you enter and leave our offices and always wash your hands. When possible, practice please use social distancing.
We continue to adapt and follow guidelines given by local and federal government.
