At Oregon ENT Center, we remain committed to the health and safety of our patients and employees as the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread. We are taking aggressive steps to minimize person-to-person interaction, one of which is the introduction of virtual ENT visits.<\/p>\n
Oregon ENT Center is back open as of 5\/4\/2020 and asking our patients to call to schedule an appointment to reduce the number of patients in our office. We do not accept walk ins. <\/p>\n
All appointments must be scheduled in advance. Any appointment that was canceled due to COVID-19, we will be calling you to reschedule. <\/p>\n
Also, we will be continuing to practice social distancing measures and are requiring all patients to bring and wear a mask. <\/p>\n
As always, please do not come in if you have a fever or flu like symptoms.
\nWe are happy to reschedule your visit.<\/p>\n
Thank you for your compliance as we continue to provide safety for our patients and staff. One of the primary benefits of a telehealth appointment is the ability to meet with your otolaryngologist when physical evaluations and testing are not required as part of the visit. Our clinic will determine if an e-visit can provide you with the same or better level of care than an in-person visit before scheduling occurs. Telehealth ENT doctor consultations are available for new and existing patients.<\/strong><\/p>\n Virtual visits are a safe way to ask about COVID19 symptoms as they related to your ear, nose, and throat. We can also refill prescriptions and provide at-home care recommendations for new and chronic ENT disorders.<\/strong><\/p>\n Many patient care services can be carried out with a telehealth visit. Some of the conditions we can diagnose and treat with telemedicine services include:<\/p>\n Consultations allow us to assess your care needs remotely. If a physical examination is required, a consultation may just act as a screening to ensure additional acute care is not required.<\/p>\n Initial hearing aid consultations can be performed by video or phone appointment. Our audiologists will walk you through a series of questions to determine your needs, and testing may need to be scheduled at a later date. Screenings and consultation appointments are a time for ENT doctors to assess a patient’s needs, answer any questions they have, and work with them to determine the next step in the care process. Otolaryngologists can execute many of their patient care duties without direct interaction.<\/p>\n With a high-quality camera, many patients can aid in their evaluation process and provide an ENT with enough high-quality imagery to make an assessment during a video appointment. Call our clinic today to determine whether your Otolaryngological needs can be met through a video or phone consultation.<\/p>\n For any of our patients who had ENT visits prior to COVID19 stay-in-place advisories, we are providing post-visit follow-up appointments using telehealth services. Video appointments allow us to perform additional assessments that phone appointments do not. Please call so that our staff can determine which appointment type can best meet your needs.<\/p>\n Patient provided photos may be able to stand in for a physical examination during an emergency consultation. If you believe you have an ENT-treatable medical condition that requires an immediate consultation, please contact our office. If you have a life-threatening medical emergency, please contact 911.<\/p>\n Currently available for select hearing aid troubleshooting problems. These services include minor repairs, cleaning and maintenance, hearing aid pick up and supply pickups<\/p>\n Most ENT patients can utilize telehealth services offered by Oregon ENT Center.<\/p>\n Current patients are able to continue receiving follow-up care while new patients can complete their initial visit and begin seeking treatment. Many assessments can be performed during a virtual doctor visit.<\/p>\n Complete the form<\/a> or call us today to request your telehealth visit.
