In the last five days, we have tested 65 patients. We are still waiting on results for the majority of these people, but so far all tests have been negative.

Our clinic is an outlier in that we are testing anyone who wants to be tested. LabCorp has been running the test since March 5th, but this was not publicized to the medical community. We only found out by doing our own research and started testing patients on March 13th.

One of the reasons we are not limiting testing is that we anticipate that early, aggressive respiratory intervention will prevent hospitalization in our patients who becoming ill. We do not agree with the hands-off approach most physicians are taking with their patients. We have seen many people who are in need of outpatient respiratory support in the form of inhalers, nebulizer treatments and/or antibiotics. We are taking extreme caution in our clinic, using the highest levels of sanitation we can, while also taking care of people who need to be cared for.

For evidence-based information on management of this virus, we highly recommend following the Center for Evidence-Based Medicine.

So that we can focus all our efforts on patient care, we are no longer scheduling patients over the phone; please use the appointments page on our website to make an appointment. We require everyone who enters our clinic to wear a mask. If you do not have one, we have non-disposable surgical masks available for $10.
