Taking Precautions During COVID-19

Mask Usage

Masks and homemade face coverings are a proactive measure designed to keep you safe and help reduce potential exposure of infectious individuals with COVID-19 to others. Masks may be required, depending on the location you’re visiting and your appointment type. Your provider’s office will notify you if masks are required for your visit. You can always check our Patient & Visitor Information page before visiting.
