Patient Advisory and Acknowledgment

Dear Patient:

You have presented to the office today because you have an urgent dental condition which must be treated at this time and cannot be postponed until the current COVID-19 risk period abates. Please be advised of the following:

While our office complies with State Health Department and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention infection control guidelines to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus, we cannot make any guarantees.
Our staff are symptom-free and, to the best of their knowledge, have not been exposed to the virus. However, since we are a place of public accommodation, other persons (including other patients) could be infected, with or without their knowledge.

In order to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19, we have asked you a number of “screening” questions below. For the safety of our staff, other patients, and yourself, please be truthful and candid in your answers.
