A Message to Our Patients
The physicians and staff of the Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorder Center at Boston University Neurology Associates and Boston Medical Center would like to provide you with important information. COVID-19 has required adjustments in daily routines including the limitation of travel, and your health and wellbeing are our greatest concern.
Telehealth Visits for New and Established Patients
Our physicians will provide telehealth visits for your care until it is safe to meet in person. These visits by telephone will be scheduled during your normal visit time or as needed depending on your health status. Once scheduled by our office staff your physician will contact you by telephone. A family member may also join the call. It will be very important to be available for the scheduled call. The visits will be billed to your insurance company as your usual visits.
In-Person Visits
Some visits may be conducted in person as recommended by the physician.
