We have been sending out regular e-mails with information for our patients. To read the e-mails in full, we have also published them here on our blog: http://www.dcmedicalcare.com/blog . If you would like to sign up to receive our e-mails, you can do so at the bottom of our contact page: https://www.dcmedicalcare.com/contact.
Here are the highlights which may be useful:
-
Our office is FULLY OPEN for regular business hours, and all our services are available for you. In addition we added telemedicine visits. If you are unable to come in and need to “see“ us for any reason we can give you results, change or renew medication and help with acute illnesses over the telephone or video chat on a same day basis. This is a great way to avoid going to the ER or an UrgiCenter where the medical team does not know you or your history, and the risk of contracting an illness worse than the one you have is real.
-
Flu shots are available for free anytime on a walk-in basis. We have the regular and geriatric type of the vaccine purchased directly from the manufacturer, as not all vaccines are the same.
For added convenience, we are running a “vaccine clinic” on Saturdays (10/03 and 10/17) in our office 10am-12pm, on a first come first served basis. We will administer the shot even to people who are not patients of the practice, and have insurance. The vaccine is also available without insurance for $37. This year it is critical to get the vaccine as many of the flu symptoms closely resemble early COVID-19 symptoms, and both illnesses need to be treated differently and early.

We now offer COVID-19 PCR testing in our offices! The demand for reliable PCR testing is great as the schools and many consumer business are now open, and there is an uptick in cases throughout the world. Part of staying open depends on testing and NOT ALL TESTS are the same. Rapid tests with immediate results have a very high rate of FALSE POSITIVE and therefore only PCR testing should be done. We get our results within 36-48 hours and will notify you by telephone. All insurances cover it, to encourage people to get tested when symptomatic. To be tested call the office and we will try to accommodate you the same day.
