KEEPING YOU SAFE

COVID-19 PROTOCOL

Office Policies

Here at Jin Choe Acupuncture + Wellness, ensuring your safety is one of our top concerns. As safety guidelines change with the progression of the pandemic recovery, we will adapt our protocols accordingly. Mask requirements differ from county to county.

Masks are optional at this time. If you would like your provider to wear a mask, please ask and we will be happy to accommodate you. If you do not have one upon arrival, we will provide one for you. Practitioners and any staff that will be in-office are fully vaccinated. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.

STAFF AND PATIENT SCREENING

Pre-appointment screening questionnaires are sent out prior to the appointment. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms within the last 5 days, please call the office to reschedule your appointment or schedule a tele-health consultation. Screening for COVID-19 symptoms are as follows:
