Dear Patients of Dr. Colene Arnold, I’m writing to each of you in the hopes that this letter finds you and your family to have remained well through the difficult months of the early part of the year 2020. I best acknowledge it as upside down and inside out, for myself anyway. My family and I have been well aside from the disappointments of a graduating High School Senior, who herself prefers to be grateful rather than feel defeated.
I’ve been able to remain in touch with many of you through various modalities including telemedicine, messaging, emails and phone calls during this time of social distancing and preservation of PPE or personal protective equipment. I appreciate all of your patience as we respected the requests made by our state and federal government as it pertained to non-urgent office visits. I hope that your needs were well taken care of as I assumed both an administrative role as well as that of your Gynecologist.
As I transition along with the rest of America to seeing patients in the office, I will be starting out with a reduced office flow to provide enough time to disinfect between each patient. I will be screening to be sure that patients are not ill or at risk for Covid-19 before they come into the office. With this being a Gynecology practice most of my patients are well and free of viral symptoms when they present to the office, even before Covid-19. Please call to reschedule your appointment should you be feeling ill with viral symptoms.
While I will remain in my current location, in Newington, I am in the process of transitioning into my own private practice, hence the new logo above! For me this logo represents women Rising Up as they begin to take control of their health, whether it be physical, nutritional or emotional. I will continue to see patients with all routine gynecologic needs as well as maintain a concentration in chronic pelvic pain disorders and dysfunction of the pelvic floor. I will continue to work closely with you to develop a plan of care that is right for you. As no two patients are alike, no two care plans will ever be alike either.
At this point everything will remain the same including the office phone and fax number. I have a new Facebook site as well as a website that is currently in the works which will have updated information regarding the practice. If you are on Facebook, please like the page @colenearnoldmd so that you can receive updates. Leah, my Office Manager, will be available by email at leah.colenearnoldmd@gmail.com as of June 1, 2020 for any questions or concerns that you may have.
I wish you all the best as we move on through 2020!
