Dr. Vijay Patel along with Dr. Mary Huffman walk through the patient and staff experience at Dr. Patel’s office. If you choose to use UVC, please ensure you use it according to the specifications of the unit you purchase. Additionally, it cannot replace regular cleaning, as the FDA indicates that the surfaces must still be clear of dust, etc. You can find out more about the FDA’s viewpoint of UVC here: https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/uv-lights-and-lamps-ultraviolet-c-radiation-disinfection-and-coronavirus. If you would like to access a screening form for patients and one designed for your staff, please visit Patient and Staff Screening Tools (Forms require an active/current membership with the ICS).
