March 20, 2020 - COVID-19 Update
Dearest Families,
Thank you for your amazing patience and understanding as we try to continue to provide healthcare in a safe environment for families and staff.
We have gowns, masks, gloves, and eye protection (though supply is limited). We also have families, small children, elderly parents, and underlying health concerns. Please, honestly answer our questions so that no one is put at risk. Please trust that we will do all we can to see your child even if it is CURBSIDE!
Due to the ever-changing scope of COVID-19 in our community, we will provide WELL visits for patients 18 months of age or younger at this time. We will call you to reschedule your appointment. Please plan, when possible, for only one low risk (less than 60 years of age without underlying health conditions) adult to accompany your child for all visits. Please keep healthy siblings at home when possible.
We have signed a contract with a telehealth company and we hope to begin virtual visits in the near future.
Please stay home. Let’s flatten the curve!
Warmest regards,
Your Northwest Pediatrics Team
