Regarding Email Communication
- Please keep your emails brief — no more than 2-3 sentences or 1-2 questions.
- For urgent or complex issues (especially mental health), please consult your Family Physician or visit The Summit for urgent care (as we are often not able to respond quickly).
- We can only address the concerns for which you were referred, and if it has been over a year since your last visit, please request a new referral from your Family Physician.
- If your email relates to forms, please ensure all sections (including the doctor’s) are completed before sending. Dr. Goldade will then review the form. They may be a fee for some forms.
- Always include your child’s Full Name and Date of Birth for easy reference.
- Check that our email address (drgoldade@gmail.com) is not going into your Junk or Spam folder.
____________________________________________
Dr. Goldade's practice has become Fully Virtual.
We are confident that we are able to manage patients & their problems virtually in a safe, efficient & convenient manner.
Our office abides by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta Standards of Practice regarding Virtual Medicine. The goal is to be 100% Virtual but we will have office space available for patients who really need to be seen In Person.
____________________________________________
You will be asked to confirm the Virtual appointment via a service called Brightsquid about 1 week before the appointment. Via their link, you will be asked to confirm with your child's date of birth and you'll need to click the confirm button TWICE. Please confirm as soon as you can. If you are unable to make the appointment this then gives us time to offer the appointment to someone else.
Please do not be LATE for your Virtual appointment. Logging in late is incredibly disruptive to the office flow. We ask that you log onto your Virtual Visit 5 mins before your appointment time. If you think you will not be able to make it for your scheduled appointment time, please email (drgoldade@gmail.com) or text (403-620-4204) and we'll switch to a phone call or a virtual visit. Other reasons for struggles to log on:
. Check your Spam/Trash folder if you can't find the LINK to the Virtual Visit. It will come directly from TELUS.
. Before the Virtual Visit, please check that your browser supports the Telus Link.
. Ensure your camera and microphone are working.
