01.01.2022 With the current situation it is recommended that everyone wear a mask when out in public. The problem with covid 19 is it is invisible for some time so you may have it without knowing. This is usually when it is spread. We are taking every precaution possible to keep our surroundings open and covid free for your safety and ours. This means you will be asked all screening questions, consultations will be by phone, and on the occasions that a doctor does need to see you face to face he will decide that via your phone consultation. Please consider wearing your mask to all appointments. Let's all pull together to stop the spread.
