Notes and COVID 19 Policy
10/6/23 - FLU Clinic Tomorrow will be INSIDE due to weather. Come on up to Suite 206 and we will see you here!
7/28/23 - Dr. Sheldon and family are headed on vacation. She will be back to regular hours on August 29th after a well needed rest. Megan Uy will still be seeing patients through the month of August but the medical side of things will be covered by the coverage group. As usual, dial our number and press 3 to get the covering doctor. If you need an ER, we recommend Winchester Hospital. If you need Urgent care, we recommend PM Pediatrics in Woburn and Waltham Walk-In in Waltham. Both have received high marks from our patients. We wish you all the best and will see you on the other side.
7/7/23 - Our main line appears to be down again. Please use 781-972-5222 while we work on the original number.
-Walk-in clinics have been cancelled until further notice. Please call ahead to schedule sick visits.
-Due to low sick visit rates and higher call volumes, insurance companies have authorized emergency charges for telephone calls during the COVID pandemic. If you speak with Dr. Sheldon about a medical issue for over 10 minutes, we will bill your insurance. Thanks for understanding during this strange and difficult time.
-If you have questions or concerns, please call us at 781-867-9220
-If you think you or your child may be at risk of exposure, call the Mass Department of Public Health at 617-983-6800
We hope everyone stays safe and healthy during this overwhelming time.
