Our number one priority at Dallas OBGYN PA is the health and safety of our patients. We are open our regular hours and offer telemedicine visits as well if you prefer. All patients are being screened upon arrival to the hospital with questions and a temperature check and given a bracelet for entrance. We are following CDCs infection prevention guidelines strictly and encourage you to as well.
Regarding the COVID-19 vaccine in pregnancy, we know this is a difficult decision. The CDC, American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and Society of Maternal Fetal Medicine feel the Covid vaccine should not be withheld from women just because they are pregnant or nursing. Pregnant women are category 1B. Prevalence of the Covid virus in the community should impact decision to get the vaccine. Feel free to view this from the Society of Maternal Fetal Medicine (residing board of obstetrics within the USA).
Please discuss this with your doctor at your next prenatal care visit OR schedule a telemedicine visit to discuss your individual decision.
