Important!! We will be closing at 2 PM today 6/27.

Unfortunately, our AC is out and for the safety of our clients, patients, and employees, we will not be able to stay open for the entire day. We are currently in process of calling the surgeries that we will not be able to perform today, as well as the appointments that we will not be able to maintain today. We will be offering availability for tomorrow and for next week. Anyone on the call log currently will not be receiving a call back today as we will be focusing on rescheduling everyone from today. Our AC will be working tomorrow, so we will be able to resume normal hours tomorrow.

If you come into the clinic today, please be very careful. The humidity is causing the floors to be slippery. We have wet floors placed throughout the entire clinic, but please know that you will need to walk with caution

Our apologies for the unforeseen circumstance creating the need to reschedule, but we will make every effort to get everyone back in by Wednesday of next week.
