**COVID-19 and Nonessential Visits**
Because of the statewide "Stay At Home" Order, you should avoid any non-essential doctor visits. There is a new option for "Telehealth Visits" for medical problems that can be taken care of either by phone or video call. If you are not sure if a problem is suitable for a Telehealth Visit, you can send me an e-mail before booking an appointment.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
The novel coronavirus, officially known as COVID-19, is a potential health threat to everyone around the world.
For most people, an infection with COVID-19 will either cause mild cold/flu-like symptoms or no symptoms at all. However, there are some people who are at higher risk of serious complications from a COVID-19 infection: the elderly; those with serious health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, cancer; those who are immunocompromised. Even if you are not in a high-risk group, you can still develop serious illness or even die from it so EVERYONE needs to be careful to avoid infection.
If you think that you might have symptoms of COVID-19, please book a telehealth visit instead of an in-office appointment.
Since there is no vaccine or treatment for COVID-19, the best way we can prevent the spread of infection and protect those who are at high-risk is to practice social distancing. It can reduce your risk of infection, and the risk to others, a lot. Plus this will slow down the spread of the COVID-19 virus so that our hospitals aren't overwhelmed at the same time. This is also known as "flattening the curve".

#EndTheBan on Gun Violence Research
As everyone knows, there has been a lot of gun violence in the news for the past several years and it seems to be getting worse. As a family doctor, any issue that impacts the health of my patients concerns me. There were about 33,000 gun deaths in America last year, which would place it in the top 15 causes of death in the US. This is a public health issue, just like heart disease, cancer or smoking.
Everyone agrees that something should be done about it, but we can't seem to agree on what should be done. A large part of that is because of the lack of data on what approaches would work best in curbing violence. This lack of data is largely because of a 22 year ban on Federal funding for research on gun violence. Now, more than ever, we need to tell Congress to end the ban on gun violence research so that we can figure out the best ways to stop gun-related violence. If you agree, please contact your US Representative and Senator, and spread the word to others that we need to #EndTheBan.
You can find out more by visiting Everytown.org, a nonprofit organization that advocates against gun violence.

Patients who are part of my practice may receive an e-mail invitation to enroll in a new patient portal called Patient Fusion. This is a legitimate request and not some kind of junk mail or scam attempt. Signing up for Patient Fusion is completely optional, and would allow you to send me confidential messages, request medication refills and look up test results and immunization records. So you can either respond to the e-mail invitation, or contact me and I will send you instructions on how to enroll.
