Earlier this week, one of our physicians received a threat from a former patient. We take patient and staff safety very seriously. After notifying law enforcement, we contracted with uniformed, off-duty police officers as we continue to work with law enforcement. In addition, we are instituting new security measures within our practice. The person who made this threat is now in custody and the Savannah Police Department is taking the lead on the investigation. We will continue to monitor the situation and remain committed to the safety of our patients and staff.
Since this matter is now in the hands of law enforcement and due to patient privacy concerns, we are unable to provide any additional information at this time, We greatly appreciate our patients’ understanding and concern.
