We've received a lot of questions regarding whether we are open during this pandemic. In this video, we answer these questions.

We have been asked by many people if we are still open and treating patients during this difficult time. In this video, we answer these questions.

I know that the growing concern around COVID-19 has everyone feeling uneasy, especially as we face more changes to our daily routines and future plans. This is why I am personally reaching out to you today to let you know that at Champion Chiropractic we feel it too, and we want to help where we can. I know that your main priorities are keeping your families safe. Accordingly, we have decided to close our clinic except for patients requiring acute care. Please know that if yo...u have an appointment in the upcoming two weeks, you will be contacted to reschedule. Our office is planning to reopen on Monday, March 30th, 2020. If you are experiencing acute pain, please do not hesitate to contact us as we are still providing emergency care as is our obligation and responsibility. The health and safety of our patients is our highest concern. In that regard, we have been taking further precautions such as offering hand sanitizers, gloves, masks, and wipes and encouraging strong hygiene practices. Additional measurements include cleaning and sanitizing to ensure high touch surfaces are regularly and thoroughly disinfected. Just like you, we are doing the best that we can to navigate these uncertain times as they continue to evolve. These tough times call for each of us to do the best we can to help one another and our community. Wishing you all good health and peace of mind during this uncertainty. Sincerely, Dr. Satdip Binning
