Changing to Telemedicine Visits
In an effort to provide excellent and safe care during this time, we are moving most appointments to the "Telemedicine" model. This means that instead of coming into our office for an appointment, you will use your phone or your computer to visit with your doctor.
The company we have chosen to work with is "Doxy.me" and it is extremely easy to use. At the time of your appointment, either click on the link below for your doctor or enter the web address. It will take you to the site and you will "check-in" and your doctor will begin the appointment shortly. Here are the addresses to enter into your browser:
www.doxy.me/dramandakaufman
www.doxy.me/drasaunders
www.doxy.me/drpicken
www.doxy.me/drsparke
www.doxy.me/drzager
www.doxy.me/brennareichman

Our office still will call you to make sure that you know that your appointment will be changed to a telemedicine visit. If you have insurance, most insurances are covering this service just as they would an office visit. If you are fee-for-service, our fees will remain the same.
We realize that some people will still need to be seen in person by their doctor. If this is necessary, we can arrange that.
IMPORTANT!
If you have respiratory symptoms, even if you think it's just a cold, DO NOT come to our clinic. If you have had potential exposure to someone with the virus or have traveled to an area where the virus is endemic, DO NOT come to our clinic. You may be putting other patients and staff at risk. If it turns out that you have Coronavirus, we would be forced to shut down our office completely.
We are happy to have telemedicine visits or consultations and we can help you find out where you can be tested. If you walk into our office with cold symptoms, we will send you away without being seen, in order to protect our clinic and patients. Everyone in our office will be required to wear a mask - patients without symptoms and staff - in order to protect each other.
If you call our office and you get a message asking you to leave a voicemail, please do. Don't call our number over and over again hoping to speak to someone. Our phone call load has increased dramatically and our staff is doing their best and will answer your message as soon as they are able.
Please take advantage of our patient portal - www.patientfusion.com to send messages to your doctor, request refills, and to make/cancel appointments.
Thank you for your patience as we all learn new ways of working together
