I wanted to give IFC patients a heads-up that the practice will have some limited availability the week of April 17–24, so you know what to expect if you need to reach us.
Here's what's going on:
• Friday, April 17 through Friday, April 24 – Laiza will be on a well-deserved vacation, so things may feel a little quieter around here!
• Friday, April 17 – I'll be seeing patients in the morning, but will be out in the afternoon for the SAFE Coalition event.
• Monday, April 20 – The office is closed in observance of Patriots' Day/Marathon Monday. 🎉
• Tuesday, April 21 & Wednesday, April 22 – I will be in the office and seeing patients as usual.
• Thursday, April 23 & Friday, April 24 – I will be driving to Philadelphia for college visits with my son - I can be reached via Spruce, Elation, or office voicemail, and Dr. Garofalo will be covering for urgent issues.
If you have an urgent concern on a day the office is closed, please don't hesitate to call — I will be available by phone for urgent issues.
I do want to set the right expectations: responses to messages and calls may be a bit slower than you're used to during this stretch, but please know I will get back to you. Your care is always my priority, and I truly appreciate your patience.
If you have a non-urgent need, reaching out before April 17 or starting April 27 is a great option.
Thank you so much for being a part of this practice and enjoy the long weekend!
Warmly,
Dr. Wendy
