COVID-19 UPDATE - Our Clinic Is Closed Until Further Notice
To the patients of Advanced Clinics of Oklahoma,
The situation with the coronavirus outbreak has become much more serious here in Oklahoma over the past week. It is only a matter of time until we have widespread infection unless we take the social distancing recommendations seriously.
As most of you know, I have chronic lung damage from a medication that reacted with my lungs several years ago. Because of this condition, I have a very low chance of survival if I were to become infected. In order for me to be around for the long haul, and be able to care for my patients for several years to come, I need to take immediate steps to protect myself from becoming infected. Therefore, I will be limiting patient visits until the risk of infection in our area decreases.
My office staff and I will be available by phone and continue to provide care to those who need immediate assistance. Should you require assistance call my office and speak with Amber. She will keep in contact with me during this time. We will re-evaluate the situation on a weekly basis and resume normal appointments as soon as possible.
During this health emergency, take the recommendations of the President’s Task Force and the CDC seriously. Limit your social interaction, wash your hands, use hand sanitizer, and clean surfaces with disinfectant before touching. If you experience fever, cough or shortness of breath, contact your primary care provider or the Oklahoma Department of Health and make arrangements to get tested for the virus.
I appreciate your understanding of my situation and your continued support of our practice. I am dedicated to resuming business as usual once the risk of infection subsides. I pray for protection over you, your family and our country.
