COVID-19 Update for Families

Healthy Steps Pediatrics Families,

As we see an increase in COVID-19 cases in the United States we are continually appraising our approach to the care of our patients.

We are attempting to reach a careful balance of caring for the well, and caring for the sick. We have modified our office dynamic to minimize exposure of sick and well patients by partitioning our office into two separate component groups and distinct staff who will be caring for each of those groups.

If you are at all concerned that you are at increased risk of having contracted the novel coronavirus, we are here to answer all of your questions and direct you to appropriate testing.

Please realize this is an evolving health emergency and as such there can be daily changes to our approach and our recommendations. Please be patient as we do our best to care for you and your family.

Sincerely,

The Healthy Steps Pediatrics Team
