UPDATE: COVID-19 / Coronavirus

The landscape in regards to COVID-19 is changing daily. As updates are received, we continue to have the safety and health of our patients and staff as our highest priority. We want you to know that all precautions remain in place to ensure adequate disinfection of the office. You will be asked screening questions as you enter the office regarding fever, cough, or shortness of breath. Additionally, our surgeons, staff, and patients are donning face masks and gloves. For the continued health and safety of all, we also ask not to have any family members, children, or friends accompany you to your appointment. If they or a driver must accompany you, they will be politely asked to wait in the car until your appointment is over. We continue to stay up to date with the recommendations of the local, national, and global organizations (CDC and WHO). Please know that Carmel Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeons will remain operational and available to our patients.

During this time of crisis, we are seeing only those patients that are necessary in our office. Therefore, you may be asked to reschedule your appointment. We appreciate your flexibilty and understanding. Appointments with our aesthetician, Kathy Garrison, have been suspended until at least April 8th. For the health and safety of our patients and staff, we continue to ask for your assistance. If you are currently scheduled for an office visit/surgical procedure and are experiencing fever, cough or shortness of breath, please let us know as we will need to reschedule your appointment/surgical procedure. Additionally, if you have been in contact with someone in the past 14 days whom tested positive for COVID-19 or had the symptoms of COVID-19, we will need to reschedule your appointment/surgical procedure to a later date.
Should you have any questions we may be reached at 317-581-0001.

To meet the health needs of potential COVID-19 patients and protect against exposure, elective surgical procedures have been suspended at St Vincent hospital facilities and at Carmel Ambulatory Surgery Center to ensure that resources are readily available.
