Despite these tough times, Coast Joint Care (and myself) are still open to review patients.
If necessary and appropriate, follow up appointments can be changed to either Telehealth or phone consults. New patients can still be reviewed face to face with the necessary precautions. Unfortunately, our health issues continue despite these unforeseen circumstances and I am here to help.
Now may be the best time to be seen, as waiting list times have reduced.
We have taken the necessary steps to ensure the health and safety of patients and staff. Rooms are cleaned and wiped down after every patient. The waiting room is spaced out and you are encourage to wait in your car or outside of the practice until your appointment.
