Annie Wang Acupuncture COVID-19 Guidelines

We are maintaining a CLEAN CLINIC. In order to provide a safe and healthy clinic for our patients and staff, we are currently ONLY treating patients without cold/flu/allergy symptoms at this time. We are offering telehealth to our patients who can’t come to in-person appointments. 

  • COVID-19 symptomatic or positive patients may not be treated on-site.
  • We ask all patients that if you, or a person you are in close contact with, are feeling ill then please cancel any impending appointments you may have.
  • Please contact and see your primary care provider for any emerging sign of potential infection. 

Traveling

As of March 3rd, most of the County’s Mandatory Directives have been lifted, including the Mandatory Directive for Travel. As of that date, there is no longer a requirement to quarantine after traveling 150 miles or greater from the County’s borders, as the directive has been rescinded and is no longer in effect in Santa Clara County. However, the Health Officer and the State under the State’s Travel Advisory do continue to strongly discourage travel and recommends that individuals who travel significant distances quarantine upon their arrival into the County.

Clinic social distancing

  • Please wear a facemask. 
  • Maintain a minimum of 6 feet distance between everyone in the clinic.
  • Your car will be your waiting room. You will be screened and come directly into your treatment rooms. 
  • People accompanying you need to wait in the car. No kids can be left alone in the car! 
  • You will be in your private treatment room for most of your time in the clinic, and the rooms are filtered with a medical-grade HEPA filter before and after your visit.

The day before your appointment

  • A pre-screening email survey for you to complete will be sent to you one day before your appointment. 

The day of your appointment, screening before entering the office, you will

  • Be checked for a facemask.
  • Sanitize hands. 
  • You will be asked if there are any changes since the pre-screen.
  • Your temperature will be taken. 
  • You will be directed to go straight to your treatment room.

Sanitizing & safety measures

  • Our practitioners and staff will wear surgical masks throughout the day. 
  • Frequently touched surfaces are sanitized several times a day, including door and faucet handles, countertops, and desktops. 
  • To sanitize, our clinic uses alcohol and an EPA approved natural, non-flammable, non-corrosive, and odorless sanitizer. It does not have the fumes or skin irritation associated with traditional disinfectants.
  • A medical-grade HEPA air-filter is in place in each room and runs through the day.  
  • A new set of sheets is provided for each patient. 

At the end of your treatment

  • All payments will be handled online.
  • You can book your appointments with the front desk staff or directly online.

Please stay healthy, be safe, and we look forward to seeing you!

Currently, our office is adding a $3 COVID-surcharge to each visit in order to cover costs to keep the clinic clean and safe during the pandemic. Instead of raising our prices, we are charging this temporary fee that will be removed once the pandemic is over. Thank you for understanding.
