Your family physician is still here for you!

In this COVID-19 pandemic, there are excellent, authoritative sources of information for Albertans who think they may be suffering from the virus.

• If you have symptoms, use the self-assessment tool to determine if you require testing and should call 811: myhealth.alberta.ca/Journey/COVID-19/Pages/Assessment.aspx
• We can all do our part to prevent the spread by staying home as much as possible and maintaining physical distancing if you find it necessary to go out. If you are a returning traveller from out of country, you must stay home. If you need information about precautions and restrictions, please visit: www.alberta.ca/coronavirus-info-for-albertans.aspx for all the facts and updates.

We know, though, that there is more to your health care than COVID-19. The family physicians  are open for business and ready to support you for your ongoing or new health questions and concerns. There are lots of ways we can work with you safely and effectively, including virtually if you must quarantine, e.g., as a returning traveller. If you do not need to be in isolation or quarantine and an in-person visit is required, that can be managed, too. 

Call our office at 403 248-2273 if you need help or advice, or if a virtual or in-person appointment is needed. 

Keeping our clinic clean and sanitized has always been of utmost importance and has effectively prevented disease transmission for many years including during the H1N1 and SARS outbreaks. Please be assured that this continues to be our priority for the health and safety of our patients and staff. 

Reception: Countertops, door handles, telephones, pens, debit machines, and public washroom are regularly disinfected. Magazines and books have been removed from the waiting room area. 

Treatment Areas: Our operatory, equipment, chairs, keyboards and countertops will continue to be cleaned and sanitized as mandated by the Alberta College of Physicians and Surgeons. 

Hand- Sanitizers: We have multiple hand-sanitizers available in waiting areas, all treatment rooms and reception.

Keeping Informed: WE will continue to carefully monitor the situations and act in accordance with the recommendations of Alberta Health Services. Please refer to the regularly updated Alberta Health Services website:
