To our valued Haydel Family Practice family:

Our office remains OPEN at this time in regards to COVID-19 (coronavirus).

The safety, health and well-being of our patients, guests and staff are of the highest priority. We will continue to follow CDC and governmental policies regarding the latest developments related to the Coronavirus.

If you think you have fever, a cough, or have flu-like symptoms, please call our office hotline at 985-876-2176 before coming to our office to be triaged / screened by one of our staff over the phone. Please help us to lower the chance of spreading any illness.

REGARDING OFFICE VISITS: The risk of exposure is always greater when our patients, parents and/or siblings gather in the reception area. We are asking that accompanying parents, siblings, spouses etc. wait outside the office or in your vehicle while we provide services to our scheduled patients. If the patient is a child or an elderly person, we will allow no more than one person to accompany them in the exam room for the appointment.

We are working hard to put sanitary protocols in place to combat the spread of infection. We will continue to provide a clean and disinfected clinic for our patients.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the office.

We will continue to communicate with our patients via our website and Facebook page to provide regular updates.
