Patients and friends: We wanted to take a moment to update everyone on the precautions we are taking in regards to the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19). We have made multiple changes to make your treatment by our providers as safe and effective as possible while avoiding excess delays. As many of you are aware our Governor, Tate Reeves, declared a state of emergency on March 16, 2020. It was through the leadership of the Governor's office and the Mississippi Insurance Department that a lot of limitations were removed to help us bring a limited telemedicine program on line in a short period. Through this program we are currently working to treat our patient's outside the physical walls of the clinic to participate in the current social distancing plan as outlined by the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH). The second stage of our plan is to limit sleep studies except for those that are deemed to be a higher priority. Further, we have significantly limited the exposure of the clinic and patients by spacing out these diagnostic tests and appointments as well as instituted additional disinfecting protocols to our facility. Finally, we have adjusted the hours of operation as follows:
Monday: 1:00PM - 5:00 PM
Tuesday - Thursday: 8:00AM - 5:00PM
Friday: Closed
We hope these limited hours are temporary and expect to return to normal hours of operation in the coming weeks. Please contact our office at 601-939-1808 with any questions of scheduling needs. Further, you can email us at mam@somnussleepclinic.com
Please have patience with us as all of our decisions are made with the health of our patients as well as our own staff and families as a top priority.
