Mask: As you enter the facility, wear a mask and avoid touching your face. Wash your hands well and use hand sanitizer. You may schedule a time to speak with his or her office after the procedure for further instructions and additional questions. Have someone else pick up any prescribed medications, rather than going to the pharmacy.
