We adjusted and cancelled certain routine appointments like routine physicals for the next few weeks to accommodate more patients into our schedules to improve access to patients and discourage patients from going to the emergency room or urgent care for conditions that can be managed in our office.
We recognize the need to offer COVID-19 point of care testing to individuals for various indications. It is with this in mind that we have procured both COVID-19 rapid antigen tests, as well as COVID-19 IgM/IgG rapid tests.
It is with excitement that we are anticipating the first group of our patients being immunized against COVID-19. Please look under our resources page for up-to-date information regarding eligibility for COVID-19 vaccine. If you are signed up for our Health Myself/Pomelo portal, we will also notify you when you when eligible.
We would like to wish our patients and colleagues a wonderful Christmas season. We hope that you would be filled with hope, joy, peace and love during this very different Christmas season. Please note that our offices will be closed on December 24-27. Urgent lab results will still be reviewed in the usual way.
We are keeping a close eye on the numbers and will follow the direction of the medical officer of health as well as the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta to guide our decision in regards to the services that we can safely offer in our office.
In keeping with health direction and City of Calgary Bylaws we require all patients over 3 years old to wear a mask while being seen in our Clinic.
