DUE TO THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK:

Courtney Medical Group is maintaining normal business hours to help with any acute concerns as well as maintaining all other essential health care needs for all our patients. Our hours are Monday-Friday (8a-5p).

CMG is doing everything we can to ensure the safety of our patients. To reduce the spread of respiratory illnesses, we are continuing to follow the CDC guidelines to better protect our patients, staff and visitors.

We ask that you please wear a mask during the time that you are in the office whether it is for an appointment with your provider or having your labs drawn. This is for your safety as much as it is for others.

CMG is limiting one visitor per patient and we strongly recommend children, if at all possible, be left with a caregiver so that we can attend to your health needs without putting them at risk.

Upon your arrival if you are feeling feverish, have sudden onset cough, and nasal congestion, please tell our staff immediately. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this time so that all of us can remain safe and healthy.

Updated CDC Recommendations Regarding Virus Testing

After changing their recommendation in late August, much to the surprise and against the suggestion of many health officials, the CDC reversed their stance that it was not necessary for those without symptoms (but having had contact with individuals known to have COVID-19) to receive testing. The recommendation has returned to state “Due to the significance of asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission, this guidance further reinforces the need to test asymptomatic persons, including close contacts of a person with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. Testing is recommended for all close contacts of persons with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Because of the potential for asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission, it is important that contacts of individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection be quickly identified and tested.” Testing is available at most local pharmacies, at your providers office (including at Courtney Medical Group), and there are temporary testing sites available through Pima County. You can read more about the update and testing availability here.

FDA Authorizes Covid-19 Tests For People Without Symptoms

Covid-19 tests have been difficult to come by, with most made available to those that are exhibiting symptoms. Last week, the FDA authorized tests for those without symptoms. Tests will be available at a wide variety of locations, although there may be a delay in obtaining a test as those with symptoms and at higher risk will receive priority scheduling. Read more about the details of the new authorization here.

CDC Recommends Face Coverings While In Public

Late last week, the Centers For Disease Control recommended that people use face coverings while in public settings. This is in an effort to stop the spread of COVID-19 by those that are ill or asymptomatic. Please follow these guidelines for how to effectively use a face covering; the recommendations specify disposable masks, but if you opt for a cloth covering, the best precaution is to wash the covering after use, and to avoid touching the covering (along with maintaining hand hygiene and frequent cleaning of high traffic areas).

If you would like to purchase handmade cloth masks, Courtney Medical Group has them available for sale for $8 each. Adult sizes; children’s sizes available upon request.

Please call our office (520-797-8555) or email (courtneymedicalgroup@comcast.net) for more information.

I have never met a doctor or person in the medical field that has impressed me as much as Dr. Courtney. At first I thought she was a bit brusk and dismissive, but as I continued appreciating her expertise in my examination, I discovered that her demeanor was better described as efficient, thorough and deliberately extensive. I became a huge fan because of her ability to immediately address every concern of mine, assess causes and related conditions that I was unaware of and to an extensive follow through on each and every detail. She has been so complete in her interviews and referrals that I have literally found her to be responsible for possibly saving my life by determining that I may have lung cancer, which I do, and that finding out this early has given me a greater chance for survival. When all the assessment was done during our last encounter she took the time to talk to me on a more personal level and came across as one the most caring and emotionally supportive individuals I have ever encountered. I read some of the other reviews and it quickly became obvious to me that any negative reviews were most likely from individuals attempting to cast her in an inappropriate negative light, rejected patients that I can only conclude were weeded out due to their drug seeking, not for legitimate medical reasons. She is brilliant, she is kind and she is not going to waste valuable time on false premises presented by disingenuous claims. She is too smart for that. I can’t praise her enough, thank you Susan from the bottom of my heart.

Thank You, From The Bottom of My Heart!

We have been seeing Dr. Courtney and staff for over a decade, she is a very caring and concerned about our health. I know she may come across as terse to some people because of her ‘Just the facts’ questioning so she can get to a root of the medical issue and a correct diagnosis.
I totally trust Dr. Courtney and her staff and would definitely recommend her practice to friends and family and everyone.
