IMPORTANT NOTICES:
To both limit the spread and reduce our patients' potential exposure to Coronavirus
there are NO WALK-IN SICK VISITS or Flu shots! All patients MUST HAVE AN APPOINTMENT!
Our phone lines open at 8:00am on weekdays to speak to a physician
Please be advised of the new office protocols in place to keep our families safe and healthy.
We respectfully ask that you please do not enter our office suite unannounced.
Preregistration for appointments will continue to take place by phone, copayments can be made online, and upon arrival please use our Car Check-in service as follows: When you arrive at the office building, call our main number (301.299.8930) from your car and select extension 123 to check in so we can make sure there is a private exam room ready for you. Please wait in your car until you are given your exam room number. Upon entry there is no need to stop at the front desk; please go directly into your assigned exam room.
Face coverings are required for all parents and children 2 years and older. Please use the hand sanitizer station located at the entryway. Follow all standard social distancing guidelines and help your children maintain a 6 foot distance from our other clients. We request that only one parent be present during appointments and siblings remain at home as much as possible.
As a reminder, we continue to see only healthy patients for check ups and follow ups in the office in the morning session and sick visits are seen in the afternoon. Please reschedule your well visit if any family member has been ill, you have traveled in the past 2 weeks, or you have had any potential exposure to Covid-19.
We are continuing to offer telemedicine visits for both sick and well care! Please ask if this is right for your needs.
