Important Information Regarding COVID-19
COVID-19 To all of our patients we are truly sorry, that at the present time our office is closed for your protection due to the unrepresented COVID-19 outbreak and the absolute difficulty in treating patients without spreading this highly contagious disease. If you have an appointment coming up soon, expect a call to reschedule your appointment, or you may call us to reschedule.
Most dental school clinics in the country are not even seeing patients, and are only accepting emergency patients. I apologize for having to do this, but know that once the threat of Corona Virus has diminished, we will be open once again to serve you!
Thank you, and may God be with you and your family,
Blaine M. Bell DMD and staff.
In recognition of ongoing news reports and the continued spread of the COVID-19 virus, we realize our patients have questions. As dedicated health care professionals, we want you to know that we remain as diligent as ever in protecting the health and safety of our patients and staff. Our practice strictly adheres to and exceeds the standards for infection control by wearing personal protective gear, using hospital-grade disinfectants, practicing the latest sterilization protocols, utilizing single-use disposable materials, and more. Every effort we have in place is to ensure the safety of our patients and staff. We want you to know that we are monitoring this situation very closely, and we will keep you updated regularly.
Symptoms of coronavirus are reported as flu-like, with varying degrees of severity. While we do not know everything about this virus to date, individuals who are elderly and/or immunocompromised appear to be the most at risk of a severe infection. To ensure your health and safety, and the health and safety of everyone at our practice, please reschedule your appointment if you or a member of your household has a cough, fever, and/or flu-like symptoms. In addition, please reschedule your appointment if you have traveled to any areas within the past 14 days that are at high risk for contracting the coronavirus.
We thank you in advance and extend our gratitude for your understanding and cooperation. Together, we can help keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office, and one of our staff members will be more than happy to assist you.
