WE ARE HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE WE ARE BACK TO
NORMAL OFFICE HOURS!!
While many things have changed over the past few months, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety.
Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe.
Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued.
You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff.
For example:
-Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are at the office.
-We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some other places in the office for you to use as needed.
-For the time being, we will have you call us from the parking lot when you arrive. You will remain in your car until we come out to greet you.
-You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.
-Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. We are doing our best to contact every patient that had to be cancelled. If you have not heard from us yet, please feel free to call the office at 215-723-1135 to schedule your appointment.
Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends.
Sincerely,
Dr. Woodmancy and Team
