Important Update regarding COVID19 (March 30, 2020)
Dear Patients,
As a result of COVID19 the physical office is closed. Phone messages are checked and email inquiries will be responded to: info@drshortt.com. If you have an emergency issue, please go to the EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT at your nearest hospital.
SURGERY: all non-urgent surgeries are postponed. If you are scheduled for surgery we will contact you with more information.
CONSULTATIONS: I know that many people have waited a long time for a consultation. I am using this opportunity to continue seeing patients, through a secure, government approved, video-consultation service. This has worked really well. If you would like a video-consultation, please email your first and last name, phone number, reason for consultation, and whether you are already scheduled at the office. Please note that OHIP consultations still require a referral.
If you would LIKE A VIDEO CONSULTATION, please email: info@drshortt.com.
We will get through this together.
Sincerely,
Rodger Shortt
