PATIENTS ONLY are allowed into the office. NO children/guests/spouses, etc.

Please feel free to video chat in your significant other and/or family members for special visits such as sonograms. We are happy to welcome these technologies into our office, and our doctors and staff will work hard to ensure your loved ones feel like they’re in the room for these moments.

MASKS REQUIRED for all patients.

Per the mandate, some type of nose/mouth covering must be worn in our building/office.
