SEE BELOW FOR AN IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING COVID-19 & THE COVID VACCINES
***Update on COVID vaccines (4/8/21):
We have received a limited supply of the Johnson and Johnson (single shot) vaccine, which we are pleased to offer to our active patients who meet the Virginia Department of Health criteria for vaccine priority groups.
Please call the office for more information and to schedule an appointment.
The Johnson and Johnson vaccine has been tested under real world conditions in the USA, Brazil, and South Africa. It offers excellent protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death. Gov. Ralph Northam (M.D.) and his wife were recently in the news receiving their J&J vaccination.

Note that there is still the option of receiving the vaccine through the Virginia Statewide Vaccine Pre-Registration System, which you can sign up for here. (Note: If you already registered through a Blue Ridge Health District survey, you do not need to register again)
Questions about how to register? Call the VA State hotline @ 877-ASK-VDH3 (877-275-8343) open daily from 8am-8pm.
****************************************
We want our patients to know that, as an essential service, we are open during the COVID19 pandemic.
However, if you have a fever, cough, loss of sense of taste or smell, or other respiratory symptoms, please do not come in to the office. Instead, call us first. We will likely evaluate you via a telemedicine visit and perform any additional testing at your car. We are working hard to keep our office and staff safe.
To limit the number of patients in the office at any given time, where appropriate, we may convert some visits to TELEMEDICINE (VIDEO) VISITS.
During the pandemic, all insurance companies and Medicare are now paying for telemedicine visits in the same way they are paying for in-person visits. This is a great service that allows you to stay in touch with your physician. Even though the physician cannot perform a formal physical examination, there is a lot that can be accomplished through these visits. We can do a telemedicine visit through an easy to use website called Doxy.me, or through other options. You need to have a camera on your phone or computer to use these options.
For patients that need to come in to the office, we will definitely see you. We are performing disinfection between every patients and doing a deep clean twice daily. All of our staff are wearing masks as a precaution to keep you and us safe, so do not be alarmed.
During this time, it is important to not postpone your visits, but if concerned about coming in to the office, continue with a telemedicine visit

***Help us get you prepared! Before the visit, please weigh yourself, check your pulse if you are able, check your blood pressure if you have a home blood pressure monitor, average recent home readings, and check you temperature if necessary. Please have these vital signs ready to go, along with a list of your medications and any needed refills.
