If any of the following applies to you, please request a video session:

• You have current fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting

• You have had a known COVID-19 exposure or have traveled on an airplane recently (I ask that you self-quarantine for 14 days before you have an in-person appointment)

• You had close contact (within 6 feet for longer than 15 minutes) with non-household members who were not wearing face coverings, you should consider yourself possibly exposed to COVID-19 (I ask that you self-quarantine for 14 days before you have an in-person appointment)

If you appear to be ill at an appointment, I will respectfully decline to see you and will ask that you reschedule.

During in-person appointments, please be aware of the following:

• To adhere to California mandates, I will be wearing a mask for the entirety of the appointment and require that you wear a mask, as well

• Weather permitting, I may leave the balcony door open to increase ventilation. The balcony overlooks an area that is a locked and accessible by the public, so your privacy remains assured.

• To help maintain a relatively contactless environment, please observe the following

  • The waiting-room door will be left unlatched. Please do not latch it behind you.

  • I will open and close all other doors for you. Please do not touch the doors or knobs.
