Meet The Staff

Dear Patients and Families,

In light of the current situation with trying to contain the spread of the coronavirus, please take all the necessary precautions to make your visit safe in the midst of this health crisis:

Follow the guidance outlined below:
  • Stay at home if you begin to feel unwell, even with mild symptoms such as headache and slight runny nose, until you recover. Why? Avoiding contact with others and visits to medical facilities will allow these facilities to operate more effectively and help protect you and others from possible COVID-19 and other viruses.
  • Reschedule your appointment for when your symptoms have subsided
  • Advise our office if you have recently traveled abroad (within the last 2 weeks)
  • If you develop fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical advice promptly as this may be due to a respiratory infection or other serious condition. Call in advance and tell your provider of any recent travel or contact with travelers. Why? Calling in advance will allow your health care provider to quickly direct you to the right health facility. This will also help to prevent possible spread of COVID-19 and other viruses.

Sincerely

Your Health Care Team at the Institute for Respiratory and Sleep Medicine
