WE ARE OPEN. For rescheduling or a new appointment, call or book online or use our TeleHealth.
Despite the challenges of COVID-19, Comprehensive Foot and Ankle Center of South Jersey has taken action to ensure the safety of both our patients and staff through strict, in-office safety protocol.
We understand this is not a time to let our guard down, and our clinicians and staff will continue diligently working to ensure the safety of those who seek care in our locations. Additionally, our team is in continuous dialogue with both national and local health authorities to ensure proper safety protocol is in place to protect our patients.
Ultimately, it is important to address the many clinical needs of our patients, as well as critical health screenings and procedures that have been postponed recently, many of which are essential to maintaining the well-being of our community.
Feel Confident in Your Care
Now that we better understand the risks and spread of COVID-19, we are more prepared than ever to help ensure a safe environment for patients to access care. Our care centers are taking the following precautions, as well as requiring participation from patients, to minimize exposure and help you feel confident in receiving the quality podiatry care you deserve.
What You Can Expect from Us:
Extensive Cleaning. Cleaning of exams rooms takes place between each patient visit, along with frequent disinfecting of our welcome areas and frequently touched surfaces.
Enforcement of Social Distancing. We are working to immediately escort all patients into private treatments rooms as they arrive in order to eliminate waiting room time. We are also encouraging patients to wait in their cars whenever possible. After you check-in, we will be happy to send you a text when we are ready for you.
Limited Schedules. While we are pleased to welcome back more patients, we are doing so with an abundance of caution, limiting the number of appointments each day to have less individuals in our offices at the same time. If you have an appointment in the next 30 days, it’s possible you may be contacted to reschedule if necessary, in order to achieve this.
Staff Screening. All staff are wearing PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) All staff are required to stay home if they are exhibiting any symptoms whatsoever.
Temperature Checks of all patients entering our facility along with a Covid questionnaire.
What You Should Do:
Wear a Mask. All patients should bring a mask or facial covering to wear at all times when in our offices. Our staff members are also required to wear a mask.
Don’t Bring Visitors. At this time no visitors, including children, are allowed in any of our care centers. Exceptions may be made for medical necessary assistance, or if the patient is a minor.
Stay Home if You’re Unwell. If you are experiencing fever, cough, or shortness of breath, please call us to reschedule or shift your visit to a telemedicine appointment.
Don’t Put Your Health on Hold
At Comprehensive Foot and Ankle Center of South Jersey, your well-being is not elective. We believe in creating a safe environment where anyone can access foot care comfortably and confidently. In addition to in-office visits, we are also offering virtual visits via through TELEHEALTH, our simple-to-use telemedicine platform. Contact us to schedule a telemedicine appointment, and connect with your provider via your laptop, tablet, or mobile phone.
Please stay well, and above all, don’t put your foot health on hold. Our providers are here for you.
Sincerely,
Dr. Kathryn Stoedter
