To Our Patients,
As news coverage of the coronavirus COVID-19 continues to grow, we wanted to reach out and let you know that we take the health and well-being of our patients and team members very seriously.
We follow the CDC’s recommended best practices in addition to all practices recommended by the American Medical Association for a safe and sterile environment. These practices include sterilizing all surfaces in the surgery rooms after each visit, the use of professional autoclaves to sterilize our instruments with a combination of very high heat and pressure, using one-time-use disposable materials as personal protective equipment to prevent cross-contamination of surfaces, and hygiene procedures like effective hand washing and foam sterilization when entering and leaving a room.
If you have an upcoming appointment, we look forward to seeing you. We are confident the safety measures we adhere to ensure our facility is a safe place for our patients.
Should you have any questions about the precautions we take, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
Tim McAuliff, MD
