“I currently live in Ooltewah, Tennessee with my wife and three kids.
In my medical practice, we have had 4 cases of Covid-19, all of whom have recovered. It is a challenge to take care of my patients while trying to maintain a safe working environment for both patients and my staff. I have the privilege of working with a talented and committed staff of nurses and office staff that come to work every day to take care of patients during this pandemic. It has been heartening to see patients recover from COVID -19.
I would ask that we all keep practicing social distancing as we see the cases of COVID-19 rising again. We are not through this yet and we need to stay vigilant, though the ‘quarantine fatigue’ is setting in.”
Kirk….for all that you do, we thank and salute you!!!!
