.RE: COVID - 19
As of Thursday, March 26 2020
Our doctors are now doing all physicals and sick visits via video chat. The only patients they are meeting in the office are newborns, baby checkups and shots. All physicals for 3 years of age and upward are being done on video chat. All patients are being contacted by email to arrange for a virtual appointment. Sick children are also being assessed through our video chats. If after the chat the doctor feels the patient needs to be seen, they will arrange for that.
Our secretarial staff are no longer coming into the office, and they are working from home. There is nobody at the office to receive phone calls, so please do not leave any messages as they cannot be answered. All requests of any kind need to be sent by email to thornhillpediatrics@gmail.com. Our staff will respond to your emails from their homes during regular office hours. We know that many doctors offices have completely closed, but we are doing our best to address the needs of our patients without putting anyone at risk.
We hope that you are all managing during this difficult time, and we pray that this is over very soon!
Please note that during this time of covid-19, Dr. Greenberg will no longer be holding Sunday emergency clinics.
