To All Lake Grove Pediatrics Patients and Families:

Melissa, myself, and the entire Lake Grove Pediatrics staff hope you are all home and safe.  With everything that is going on with the Corona Virus, we will be starting Telehealth, medicine appointments for those visits that do not require hands on assessments, such as any skin rash, diapers rashes, lacerations, medicine refill checks, ADHD follow ups, mild cold symptoms, pink eye, and weight checks (not newborns). If you would like to schedule an appointment, call the office as usual, and if we think this can be done via telemedicine we will schedule an appointment for you. If you have a child that requires a well visit and vaccines, or a child who is sick in which we can not address the problem via telemedicine, we will still be scheduling routine appointments. We will continue to separate all sick and well children. We will continue social distancing, by allowing you to wait in your car until your appointment so no one is waiting in the waiting area. We will continue to take all precautions necessary to ensure the safety of all of your children, including, masking and gloving for all well visits, masking all sick children upon arrival and sterilizing all rooms in between visits.
We hope everyone remains safe and healthy.

Sincerely,

Dr. Goldberg
