Due to the Covid19 pandemic, the clinics are operating short of staff on many days and the clinics are also experiencing a higher volume of calls than normal. Please keep in mind that most communication is being done by telephone including medical appointments. Staff are doing the best that they can to answer the phones. Please do not stay on hold for long periods of time. Patients will have more success if they hang up and retry their call. We ask for patience during this stressful time.
