What SBA Dermatology Is Doing to Keep You Safe

Your safety and health are our top priority. We have made some changes to accommodate social distancing and create the safest environment possible. Patients play an important role in accomplishing this. This partnership between our office and patients will be key in the upcoming in-person appointment. Here is a brief overview of what to expect and what is expected from you at your next visit.

• Screening all patients when scheduling appointments for symptoms and exposure risk.
• Screening all patients upon arrival with temperature checks and an exposure questionnaire.
• Wearing personal protective equipment while providing patient care.
• Redesigning waiting rooms and check-in lines to ensure social distancing.
• Implementing additional sanitation processes to disinfect all equipment and surfaces.
• Offering curbside pickup for product purchases to minimize in-office foot traffic. Call our office at 713.850.0240 upon arriving or shop our online store at www.shopmdskincare.com

Patients will be required to:

• Contact your doctor’s office before your appointment if you are experiencing certain ARI (acute respiratory illness) symptoms.
• To adhere to social distancing and minimize the time in the lobby, please log on to the online patient portal to update your information before your visit. No paperwork will be done in the office.
