TEMPORARY ISOLATION LOCK DOWN FOR VICTORIAN BUSINESSES
WE ARE STILL HERE FOR YOU EVEN IF WE ARE NOT OPEN
We are saddened to report that Tuesday the 24thMarchwill be our final day of clinic at Coburg Osteopathy & Health Services, before this inevitable temporary lockdown. Even though it has been recommended by Federal and State governments to help reduce spread of this life threatening virus, it has been a difficult decision to accept for all members of our team. It will be the first time we have closed our doors in 20 years.
We are hopeful that if everyone in our community cooperates to isolate, we will see a decline in the cases reported. This is a time for us each to do our bit, to reflect and remember to never take our health for granted, look after ourselves and our loved ones.
We believe that it is our responsibility as health practitioners to assist with the effort to slow the pandemic and keep the vulnerable members of our community safe. We are unsure how long this closure will be but we are assuming it will be between 2-4 weeks. If you require a last minute appointment today or tomorrow, we will endeavor to accommodate you the best we can.
If you have an existing appointment, you will have received an sms message from us, asking if you would like to keep your appointment and change it to an online video/phone appointment, or choose to cancel it.
