If you have symptoms of COVID-19, please call your primary care provider to see if further screening is necessary. By calling in advance, your provider can take your health history over the phone and determine if you require testing. In most cases, self-isolation at home is the best way to manage COVID-19 symptoms.

If you do not have a primary care provider, call CareConnectNow to discuss your symptoms with a medical professional. CareConnectNow offers virtual visits for many conditions where you would seek urgent care.

The CDC has identified a number of emergency warning signs that require immediate medical attention.

If you are experiencing these warning signs or have other symptoms that are severe or concerning to you, go to the Emergency Department. 

In line with other measures taken to protect our staff and patients, and limit the transmission of COVID-19, until further notice we are limiting all outpatient in-office appointments to urgent patients requiring a physical exam. We’ll shift all other routine visits to telemedicine visits or we’ll reschedule. Offices will remain open to staff, but not the public. This way we can continue to receive calls, meet the needs of patients and providers, and answer all requests and messages from patient portals.

If you have an in-person appointment and you have respiratory symptoms – such as a cough, runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, or fever – we ask that you cancel or postpone your specialist appointment unless it is absolutely essential. 

We are limiting surgeries and procedures to emergencies or urgent cases only. This measure is in effect until further notice. We are contacting patients directly to notify them and reschedule, as appropriate.
