Opening up to regular patients again on May 11

On Monday May 11, we will be opening up the office during our usual business hours and seeing regular patients again.

We have certain precautions we will continue to make in the office: staff will wear masks, surfaces will be disinfected and our scheduling will be reduced to decrease exposure in the waiting room. We will also permit people to wait in their cars and be texted when the doctor is ready to see them. If you would prefer this, simply ask when you schedule.

Until then, Dr Richards will continue to see cases on a limited basis. Just call our special line, (828) 290-9255 to discuss your condition with the doctor and make an appointment.

Note that the office will be closed May 18-22 due to Dr. Richards being unavailable at that time. This is not related to the COVID-19 crisis, but should be noted.
