Update

We have always exceeded the strict OSHA-mandated protocols to maintain a highly sterile environment within our offices. These guidelines were created to safeguard against the spread of severely contagious diseases such as tuberculosis and measles, and they are equally effective in managing the spread of influenza and coronavirus.

In addition we have added more rigorous disinfecting techniques and sterilize common areas more often. Our office has added a sanitizing system directly to our HVAC which “cleans” the air continuously for an added safety measure. We have minimized contact with staff as much as possible by utilizing the internet and phone contact when possible, and have added the option for some to do a virtual visit.

We are working hard to keep you safe!
