The Clinic Stays Masked Among Reopening

Update on Mask Guidelines: Several industries have had the mask requirement lifted, but unlike them, healthcare facilities are places where immunocompromised and other high-risk individuals are expected to congregate. As such, the state has excluded all healthcare facilities--including doctor's offices--from the lifting of the mask mandate.
Per the Governor's latest proclamation on the matter, all individuals are required to wear appropriate facial coverings in healthcare settings, regardless of their vaccination status.
So, for now, please continue to wear your masks in the clinic for your safety and the safety of others. We will let you all know as soon as these restrictions are lifted!
