COVID-19 and You

COVID-19 has been a challenge for all of us. I continue to practice virtually most of the time. Patients have found this convenient and there are fewer missed appointments or office waiting time for me. The State of Georgia now requires that a patient must be seen in person before receiving certain types of medications. Typically, if that is the case, I will arrange a short follow up visit to explain and provide that treatment. An unfortunate thing is my inability to weight, check a pulse or get other vital signs. Video is not the same as eye to eye connection.
