Dear Patients and Friends,
We are happy to announce that we have reopened our offices for routine eyecare!
We are making great efforts to keep you and your family safe and have made the following
changes to address the challenges regarding COVID-19 following the CDC and AOA (American
Optometric Association) guidelines.
• In accordance to local and state guidelines, all doctors, staff & patients (adults and children
over age 2) must wear face masks.
• We have dramatically reduced appointments to allow time for our staff to properly sanitize the
exam & pretest rooms in-between patients.
• To minimize contact between patients, you will not be allowed to bring extra family members
inside the office, with the exception of one parent (or caregiver) for minor children and
patients with special needs.
• We will be screening everyone at the front door (including our staff) with a non-contact
temperature check and quick covid questionnaire to ensure good safety measures.
• We are limiting the number of people in the building at the same time, so you may be asked
to wait outside or in your vehicle rather than the waiting room.
• We are now using Telehealth services for patients who have an ocular emergency after
business hours or if you have concerns about coming into the office.
• We will continue to offer curbside pickup or direct shipping for all products ordered from our
practice.
• All eyewear in our optical department is cleaned with UV sterilization after any human contact
and surfaces will be disinfected frequently throughout the day.
If you or anyone in your household have been sick or exhibiting flu-like symptoms such as fever,
dry cough, loss of taste or smell, muscle aches or have been exposed to COVID-19, please
seek medical advice and reschedule your appointment.
Small businesses in our community need your support in the days ahead, so we thank you in
advance for your loyalty and for your patronage. We are always here for your eyecare needs
and appreciate your thoughtful referrals and trust in us.
Stay safe, stay healthy, and we look forward to seeing you all very soon.
Sincerely,
Dr. Henderson, Dr. Brody, Dr. Danz and staff |
