EmergeOrtho’s leaders stay up-to-date with current COVID-19 resources such as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) Task Force. Our goal is to keep our website’s information updated as it pertains to our patients, visitors, and team members.
At EmergeOrtho, patients must be comfortable visiting our office and know that EmergeOrtho follows strict disinfection safeguards and standards. The health of our patients, visitors, and staff is the utmost priority.

- Patients, if you are experiencing fever, cough or shortness of breath, we request you call the office to postpone your appointment.
- We are pre-screening patients prior to office visits.
- Facemasks are required in all offices and patient care areas of EmergeOrtho. Please do not enter an EmergeOrtho office if you are symptomatic.
- Visitors are not allowed in clinic unless the patient is a minor or is in need of personal assistance.
