Langley doctors are now available to provide patient care using telephone or video during the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to providing in-person care when necessary. The use of virtual care allows patients to receive medical care from their own doctor. It protects not only patients, but their doctors and staff as well. We urge patients to call your doctor first. They know you best. Doctors will let patients know if an in-person visit is needed, and their staff will follow up to make arrangements.
