We remain committed to your health and safety, and have made changes in our office during this pandemic.
By Dr. Angela Chang
During this current pandemic, we have continued to serve our patients with in-person office visits under guidelines recommended by the Center for Disease Control, World Health Organization, and the American Board of Otolaryngology. We are also now offering video telemedicine appointments for non-urgent needs or for those who prefer to stay home. Please call our office at 858-208-0030 to set up your in-office or telemedicine appointments.
Your safety, as well as the safety of our staff, is our highest priority. We have instituted the following preventive measures in our office during this time:
Patients and staff are required to wear face masks
Screening patients for symptoms of cough, fever, shortness of breath at appointment confirmation and again at check-in.
Temperature is taken at check-in.
Increasing already-rigorous cleaning and sanitization protocols
Hand-sanitizing stations throughout the office
Direct entry into exam room if more than one person in waiting room
Please exercise good hand hygiene with frequent washing for 20 seconds, and avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. More information on COVID-19 can be found on the CDC website.
OUR OFFICE DOES NOT OFFER COVID-19 TESTING. As you might know, testing is very limited. If you believe you may have COVID-19, please call your primary care provider for further instructions. You may also call the dedicated COVID-19 Scripps nurse hotline at 888-261-8431.
We will continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic. We will keep you informed of any changes, and appreciate your flexibility and patience.
