We will be opening our office in phases. Initially, we will be limiting the number of patients in our office and waiting room to ensure we are practicing social distancing. You may be asked to wait in your car until your provider is ready to see you, and we will call you so you can go straight to the treatment room. Each provider will have limited schedules during Phase 1 of our reopening.
