COVID-19 UPDATE: Dear Patients and families: We would like to provide you with an important update regarding our office's CoVID19 strategy, as of April 15th, 2020. ... Our goal continues to be to provide the best healthcare services that we possibly can to our patients. In addition to preventing spread of COVID19 through the community. The changes are as follows: 1. We will postpone all non-essential visits, including annual health physicals and minor medical issues. 2. We will convert as many visits as possible to telephone encounters, including any patients with infectious symptoms. 3. There must be no more than one parent/guardian accompanying any patient(s) when coming into the clinic. 4. Anyone who has travelled in the last 2 weeks should not come into the clinic. Rather a phone visit will be made to assist you. 5. Any child with infectious symptoms should postpone their regular check-up/physical. 6. Please NO walk-in visits. We are doing our best to contact everyone who has an upcoming appointment prior to their visit. If you have any questions or concerns regarding coming in or with your child, please stay home and get in touch with the office (phone or fb message). Dr. Rodrigues will call you back to address your concerns. Please understand the doctor will be as timely as possible to return all calls/messages. Please remember that as a community we can all reduce the risk of spread by washing our hands regularly and practicing social distancing. Thank you!!!
