Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought enormous hardships to our country and healthcare system. We present our experience navigating through this pandemic with emphasis on reactivating our practice while keeping patients and staff safe. It is hoped that the methods and thought processes provided in this manuscript will help those who are in various stages of managing their practice or provide lessons learned as our country eventually moves beyond this pandemic. Lastly, we aspire to provide a guide for those who are in a position to prepare for the next pandemic.
