COVID-19
In keeping with recommendations from the Saskatchewan Health Authority, both elective consultations AND elective surgeries are now re-opened
Initial consultation and follow up
These may be either in-person or over the phone. If you have...
An in-person consultation set up but would prefer a telephone consult
OR
If you are higher risk or are worried about Covid transmission
OR
If you have signs or symptoms of Covid 19
you will be able to connect with Dr. Lutz virtually if needed. Call our office for details
Joint Injections
Dr Lutz will be doing joint injections at SCH (limited numbers still, unfortunately) and in his office (for the cost of supplies). If you feel you fit these needs please contact Angela at (306) 244-5561
BEFORE YOU COME
All patients coming for consultation require a mask and should be symptom-free.
It is still very difficult to guess the length of the waitlist both for initial consultation and ALSO for an operation, BUT, when we have a date for you we will contact you!
Updated Information
Often when you have a virtual consult it will be over the telephone HOWEVER some consults (such as a post-op check) may need a video platform. If this is the case please follow the directions below to access his virtual office.
