You might see that some of our staff members or patients will continue to wear masks.  Please be respectful of their decision as they may have immunocompromised issues, are unable to be vaccinated due to allergens, or simply choose to wear them as extra protection.

During a surgical appointment, masks are required for everyone in the surgical center. If you do not have one with you, one will be provided for you. We thank you for your willingness to protect yourself and others from the spread of any germs (COVID-19 or other) prior to surgery. If you are the driver for the patient, you will be asked to wear a mask in the waiting room, or you can wait in your vehicle and we will call you prior to releasing the patient.
