COVID-19 Information & Resources

We are monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak very closely to make sure we provide the best care for our patients. To minimize risk to you and our other patients, please be aware of the following guidelines for your upcoming appointment:
We highly encourage you to attend your appointment alone. If this is not possible, only 1 additional person may come into the office with you and they must be over 18.
No children or individuals under 18 will be allowed into the office.
If any of the following apply, do not come to the office. Call to reschedule your appointment and receive additional information.
- You are experiencing a fever, cough and shortness of breath.
- You have recently traveled or have been in contact with someone who has traveled to an area affected by COVID-19.
- You have had contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
Currently, Valley Women’s Health is unable to test, diagnose or treat COVID-19. For more information about COVID-19 or if you feel like you may have the virus, call the CDC hotline at 800-456-7707.
At this time, it does not appear pregnant women are at higher risk of the virus, but we are monitoring the situation closely and will continue to make adjustments and recommendations based on what is best for the health of our patients. Call us or contact our nursing staff online with any questions you may have.
As a reminder, you can protect yourself from COVID-19 the same way you protect yourself from other viruses with a few basic practices:
- Wash your hands thoroughly and often. Make sure you are cleaning between your fingers and under your nails.
- Avoid shaking hands, especially with those who appear to be ill.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth as much as possible.
- Disinfect shared surfaces.
- Stay home when you are sick.
