We Are Open!
However, all services are being provided via Zoom, telephone, and mail. This is nothing new for us. Due to a long history of successfully operating this way (a service we've offered to out-of-towners for the last several years), we've decided to eliminate all unnecessary risk for the foreseeable future.
Do not wait to schedule your appointment or to get your supplements. Just give us a call and we'll schedule you with a doctor or ship you what you need. (Note: The physical office is closed, so please call rather than try to stop by.)
