PRACTICE UPDATES ABOUT COVID-19

They are wonderful people who take care of you. I thank God for the care I receive when I'm here. God bless each and every one of them.

I live part time 1.5 hours away from Marion Wellness and Disease Management. It is worth the drive to come here and be treated.

I am always met with professionalism and compassion.
They are exceptional, 
knowledgeable providers!
Thank you!

VACCINE QUESTIONS
As a small practice we do not have the ability to provide the vaccine for COVID-19.
We are available to answer questions about the vaccines and are using guidance from the CDC for these questions.

The COVID-19 vaccines are free.

CHANGES IN PRACTICE
The safety of our patients, providers, and other team members is our top priority.

We ask that no visitors enter the clinic, except for caregivers who assist patients with transport, translation or other personal needs.

Prior to your visit we will call and ask a few questions about exposure to COVID-19 or any signs and symptoms of illness. If you have been exposed, recently been tested for COVID-19 and are awaiting results or have symptoms of COVID-19, we may reschedule your visit, see if we can do an E-visit, or change your visit to a sick visit.

We are seeing sick patients and are taking extra precautions to protect ourselves and other patients.
Prior to entering the clinic we will take your temperature and ask the same questions about exposure and any signs or symptoms of illness.
Anyone entering the clinic (including staff and providers) must wear a protective face mask or face covering.

COVID-19 TESTING

We do offer COVID-19 testing (and antibody testing) through Quest Diagnostics. These are billed through your insurance the same as any other labs we routinely order. There may be a co-pay or coinsurance depending on your plan. 

The McDowell County Health Department has FREE testing sites weekly, for more information on their tests please visit: http://www.mcdowellem.com/covid-19-testing-sites.html
