Covid Precautions
Strict precautions are in place to protect patients and staff during the COVID pandemic.
Please reschedule your appointment if you are unwell with symptoms of a cold or COVID, or if you are a contact of someone with COVID.
We respectfully request that you wear a mask for the duration of your appointment, correctly fitted over your nose and mouth. Ideally this should be a P2/N95 mask, or at least a high-quality, well-fitted surgical mask. A cloth mask is ineffective in preventing the spread of Omicron.
