Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)

Update

For the safety of our patients, staff and the community at large:

With the statewide order issued by Governor Newsom for all California residents to shelter in place, our office will be closed until further notice. 

We will keep you updated as the situation evolves.

We will be available for emergencies only.  If you are a current patient of record and have an emergency, please call the office at (805) 963-2041.  We will be checking messages frequently.

If you already have an appointment with us, we will be contacting you to reschedule.

Some things that you can do to protect yourselves and help to stop the spread of the disease are:

Remain at home following Governor Newsom's guidelines.

Maintain at least a 6 feet distance between yourself and other people should it become necessary for you to go out.

Wash hands frequently for at least 20 seconds with warm soapy water.   Use a hand sanitizer with an alcohol content of 60% or greater, when washing is not an option.

Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.

Disinfect your cell phone, keyboards, door handles and other frequently used surfaces with solutions that have at least 70% alcohol content.

When coughing or sneezing, cover the mouth and nose with a flexed elbow if a tissue is not available.  Discard the tissue immediately into a closed bin and wash or sanitize your hands.

Taking these precautions will help you, your families and our community to help stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus. 

We encourage you to visit the websites of the following official health organizations for further information:
