Coronavirus Update
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Decatur Health and Wellness is taking measures to improve the safety of our patients and staff by staggering appointments, screening all patients for fever upon entering the clinic, limiting visitors and performing regular disinfecting of all surfaces between appointments.
In April, we began offering telemedicine appointments for our existing patients using the HALE telemedicine platform which you can use on your phone or computer. You can request an appointment by calling the office at (678) 705-8695) at which time staff will send an invite to the HALE app, update insurance information and collect co-pays or other payments.
New patients will need to book an in-office appointment—subsequent appointments can be scheduled via telemedicine. Monthly in-office prescription refills can be paid via telephone and will be brought to your car door.
