The team at Drumheller Associated Physician wishes to extend the following information to the community regarding ongoing clinic access to care during the COVID pandemic:
As a result of increasing case numbers in our immediate and surrounding area, we are encouraging virtual care clinic practices whenever possible at this time. In the recent weeks we had been starting to open up care for more in person assessments, however as our area has seen more COVID cases we are wanting to ensure the clinic remains as safe as possible and utilized for essential care only. Your doctor is still available to touch base with you by phone or video visit, and if deemed necessary can and will still see you in clinic.
Thank you all for your understanding in this as we try to do our part to keep the clinic a safe access point.
