COVID-19 UpdatesSan Jose, CA
When it is time for your next appointment, you may see some changes along with our already strict infection control protocols. For example:
- Our office will communicate with you ahead of your appointment to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.
- When entering the office, your temperature will be taken. We will ask you to use hand sanitizer which we will supply. Please wear your mask on the way into our office.
- You may see that our reception area will no longer offer magazines, refreshments and other items which cannot be properly disinfected.
- Should you choose, you may wait in your car and be texted or called when we are ready to bring you directly to the treatment area.
- Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered slightly limited options for scheduling your appointment.
- We will do our best to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the office at any one time. Please do not bring another person into the office with you unless it is necessary. This will make social distancing easier for us all.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice.
Almaden Valley Smile Design is located at 6472 Camden Ave Suite 100 San Jose, CA 95120.
