KEEPING UP WITH COVID-19

A special message for patients from Dr. Jeffrey Fischer and the Fischer Laser Eye Center team. (3/26)

3/21/2020

We are committed to the safety and health of our patients and team. As healthcare professionals, we have a role to play in “flattening the curve” to help limit infections and spread of the virus and now we ask you to join us in this effort. We will continue our disinfecting procedures, screening our patients at the entry of our facility, and continue to take care for your needs. We will continue to see patients on an urgent basis.

Limiting our care to blurred vision, postoperative care, continuing care of diabetics, glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration and other eye diseases, broken glasses and emergency contact orders.

Caring for our patients goes beyond providing exceptional healthcare services. Your health is our highest priority. For that reason, we are continually monitoring public health issues, such as the recent cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19). Rest assured, we are responding with plans and procedures based on national and local guidelines to ensure the safety of patients and staff. This includes elevating our already customarily high standards of sanitation, cleaning, and employee hygiene.

Help us keep everyone healthy and safe by rescheduling your appointment if you…

  • Have a fever
  • Have a cough
  • Have shortness of breath (not related to known heart/lung disease)
  • Have recently traveled outside the country

We ask that only patients enter the building at this time if patients are under 18, one adult may accompany.
