COVID-19: Steps Towards A Safe Clinical Environment
Telemedicine
Keeping the safety and well-being of our patients as the top most priority in the current COVID-19 conditions, Dr.Basavaraju is now offering secure Telemedicine visits for those patients who prefer to be seen remotely and who are unable to make it to in-office appointments. If you would like to schedule the Telemedicine visit, please sign the Telemedicine Patient Consent Form in PATIENT RESOURCES menu and forward the same to frontdesk@ariant.com.
COVID-19 Patient Information: At ARIANT, the safety and well-being of patients and staff is topmost priority for us. To ensure such safety, all patients MUST WEAR MASKS before entering the clinic. Once patients arrive for appointments we do IN-PERSON SCREENING by taking their temperature before their check-in. Once screened and check-in is completed, patients are REQUIRED TO SANITIZE their hands before entering the patient rooms. Our patient-waiting area strictly follows SOCIAL DISTANCING norm with seating 6 FT APART. All our staff work from behind PLEXIGLASS ENCLOSURES, so that patients are not directly exposed to them and vice-versa. We kindly request your full support and cooperation in keeping everyone safe, while we continue to strive to deliver the best patient care and service for you. Please do not hesitate to contact our staff members for any further information you may need. For further information on Covid-19 health safety guidance, please refer to CDC website https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html.
