OIP’s Temporary Response to Rise in COVID-19 Cases

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise, our team is working hard to ensure we can safely meet your orthopedic needs. Below is a list of temporary measures that will take effect immediately. As always, the health of our patients and our associates is the priority.

We are currently experiencing staffing shortages due to COVID-19. While we are trying to accommodate as many patients as possible, your wait time may be longer in both registration and clinical areas. Your time and your trust is important to us and we apologize for this temporary inconvenience. Thank you for your understanding.

1. The impact of COVID-19 on staffing levels also requires us to consolidate some team members, which means temporarily adjusting hours at some locations. See all the details below: 

2. We are asking all adult patients to come to their appointments alone. If you need a support person because of difficulty walking or understanding your care, please call us ahead to discuss. Anyone who is not a patient will be kindly asked to wait in the car.

If you have questions regarding an upcoming appointment or our COVID-19 policies, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Find more information about our COVID-19 response effort here.
