Dear Patient,

Pinsky Plastic Surgery has the health and well-being of our patients as our top priority. We understand the concern and uncertainty you may be experiencing surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and we are committed to being responsive to the needs of our patients.

Our practice has always followed universal precautions for infection control as well as protocols and systems to keep all patients, visitors, and healthcare workers safe. In addition, we will wipe down all exam chairs, counter tops, doorknobs, etc. with every patient encounter. As such, our medical practice will remain open during our standard hours. We are however asking everyone to respect the following advisory.

If you have a scheduled appointment, please plan to keep this appointment unless you, or a member of your household is experiencing:

• fever
• cough
• shortness of breath
• if you have traveled out of the United States within the past 14 days or,
  you have been in contact with someone who has traveled outside of the United States

If any of the above, then please call before coming into the office so we can assess your specific situation and make appropriate arrangements to help you.

We will continue to closely monitor this situation closely and appreciate your cooperation. With that said, we will continue to do everything we can to ensure your wellbeing and that of our community during this time.
