Although our practice remains open at this time, we do ask any patient who is currently experiencing fever, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills or fatigue to call our office prior to arriving to our practice. We have safeguards in place to ensure the highest level safety for our patients.

We remind people the New York State Department of Health (DOH) recommends the following ways to minimize the spread of all respiratory viruses, including 2019-nCoV:

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Stay home when you are sick.
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) when coughing or sneezing. If you use a tissue, throw it in the trash.
