Each patient will sign a Covid-19 waiver and acknowledgement before treatment that acknowledges the risks of being exposed to Covid-19 and the repercussions of the virus on a body. Once you sign the form, it is valid indefinitely and the expectation is that if you have any symptoms, you will reschedule your appointment.
Please cancel your appointments if you are experiencing symptoms or have been around a loved one who has experienced symptoms. I appreciate as much notice as you are able to provide, preferably 24-hours.
Vacation and travel requirements: Please allow for 10 days after the return from your trip to come in for your scheduled appointment. You may also provide a negative test that was taken 3-5 days after your return.

Please note, if at any point the office considers no mask wearing for vaccinated patients, you will be required to supply your vaccination card.
