To all of our valuable patients :
Thank you for trusting us as your eye care provider. We are committed to taking good care of our patients as our own family.
We have been closely monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 (coronavirus ) outbreak according to the guidelines and recommendations of the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
We want to share with you the actions we are taking to help protect the well-being and health of our patients and staff. We have increased the frequency and degree of cleaning and sanitization throughout our facility. We also have made sure we have enough cleaning supplies during this crucial time . We also have asked each of our staff to ensure that they are washing their hands more frequently . Please feel free to use our sink area to wash your hands prior to checking in at the front desk upon entering our office.
If you are sick, to keep from spreading respiratory illness to others, we recommend that you should:
• Stay home when you are sick or have a fever.
• Frequently wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 to 30 seconds .
• Cover your cough/sneeze with tissue, and then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
If you are not feeling well or have been around someone that may possibly have COVID-19, or have traveled out of the country in the past 21 days and have an upcoming appointment soon please give us a call so that we may reschedule your appointment to prevent any spread to others . This is a rapidly-changing situation and we understand that the situation can be stressful, but by working together and remaining calm, we can help slow the spread of the virus and its possible impact. Our main priority is and will always be the health, well-being , and safety of our community and our patients.
Wishing everyone good health during this time and always.
-Dr La
