COVID-19 Policies
Dear Valued Patients,
We appreciate the trust that you have placed in us to care for you and your dental health needs.
In an effort to follow the latest guidance from the CDC and to do our part to slow the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in our community, we will be implementing the following adjustments to our office routines. We appreciate you and are grateful for your efforts to join us in confronting this public health crisis.
We ask for your cooperation in the following ways:
1) ALL individuals (patients and staff) will be screened for illness upon entering the office. If you have any symptoms including, but not limited to fever, cough, loss of taste/smell & shortness of breath, please call our office and reschedule your appointment. For your safety and others, we will be taking your temperature at the front desk to ensure you do not have a fever above 100.3 degrees F.
2) We are arranging appointment times and lengths to limit one patient interacting with another. We support the strategy of social distancing so we are asking patients to stay in their cars and call the office at 336-659-6640 upon arrival.
3) Please only bring someone with you if absolutely necessary (driver, guardian, etc.). Please no children who are not scheduled for an appointment.
***We have always been and continue to be committed to keeping our office impeccably clean and sanitized. In response to the spread of COVID-19 in the community, we have increased the frequency of these cleaning routines.
Dr. Charles New and assistants wear N95 masks covered by a surgical mask, gloves and surgical caps and gowns for consultations and treatments. ***
