Dear patients and our community—
During this time of the COVID-19 crisis, we want to reassure you that we are taking every precautionary measure to ensure a safe and sanitary practice in order to care for our breast cancer patients who are in need at this time.
In adherence to the American College of Surgeons’ guidelines, we are committed and equipped to perform emergent or urgent surgical procedures, while non-urgent and elective surgeries will be rescheduled at a further date.
We ask that you help us drastically reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection in our offices by self-isolating if you or others who you’ve been in contact with have had symptoms of COVID-19, such as a cough or fever. Please note:
- 1) Those who have or have had COVID-19 are considered contagious for 72 hours after their last symptom has resolved.
- 2) Family members of those infected should also self-isolate while their family member is recovering, and for 14 days after the last symptom of their affected family member has resolved.
Please call our office at 865-692-1610 for further information. We remain committed to caring for and protecting our breast cancer patients in every way possible while adhering to COVID-19 restrictions as necessary.
For more information, read our blog post What You Need To Know About Surgeries During The COVID-19 Pandemic.
Stay safe and take care of one another while we take care of our beloved breast cancer patients.
—Dr. Aaron Margulies, Imelda Margulies, and our entire staff
The world of breast cancer research and treatment is always changing, so staying on top of the most up-to-date advances in providing patient care simply must be a continual pursuit.
