Attention: Updates for appointments in current COVID 19 pandemic

Dear BOG patients,

Thank you for your patience during this time.

We are currently trying to see all obstetrical and gynecologic appointments in office; however, we still need to limit the number of patients at one time in our waiting room and office to abide by social distancing recommendations. This will lead to longer wait times in some circumstances. Certain appointments may also still be done by phone and the office will let you know if your appointment will be by phone.

For in person appointments, please wear a mask while you are in the office. This is now mandatory. One adult support person may accompany you to appointments if necessary, but they must also be asymptomatic and be screen negative. We do not provide masks for your support person, please ensure they bring a mask.

If you have an appointment booked, you will be screened for a history of symptoms and travel or COVID 19 contacts by phone or email. If you have a history of fever, cough, sore throat, or travel outside of Canada within the last 14 days, please cancel your appointment and self-isolate for 14 days. Call 811 for further information or use the self-assessment tool at www.saskatchewan.ca/COVID 19

For your clinic appointment, you will be given a cell phone number to text on arrival with your first and last name. They will text you back when you can enter the clinic.

Gynecologic surgeries have been resumed and if you are currently on our surgical waitlist, you will be contacted directly when a date is available.

We will get through this together.

Sincerely,

BOG Doctors and Staff
