COVID-19 UPDATE

In light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, our office would like to outline some guidance towards patients who may need medical care in our office. Since screening as of 3/16/20 is limited, we need to take extra measures to protect our patients and their families, including:

We will be offering well checkups for babies aged 1-12 months in the early hours (10 am-11:30 am)
Older children who have had checkups scheduled in the near future will need to have their visits postponed until further notice.
Sick patients will be provided appointments later in the day.
If you have traveled to countries listed on the CDC site, or exhibit symptoms such as fever, dry cough, and shortness of breath, you will need to self quarantine for 14 days. If symptoms worsen, you will need to visit the Emergency Room, but not until you've informed them of your upcoming arrival.

Specific measures need to be taken to protect other patients and medical staff. DO NOT show up at any medical facility unannounced. We will update our website when more testing sites will be available. Since treatment in mild cases is symptomatic and supportive, self quarantine and social distancing is an appropriate recommendation.

If you have questions about COVID-19 please refer to the NJ Department of Health website or call their 24-hour hotline at 1-800-222-1222, or refer to the CDC website.

Due to these extenuating circumstances, please be advised that our office hours may be shortened. Thank you.
