 Hello, my name is Dr. Peter Crino and I'm Chair of the Department of Neurology here at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and the University of Maryland Medical Center. I want to reach out to you during this difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are obviously all struggling to maintain social distancing, to keep our loved ones and ourselves safe, and to do what we can to stop the spread of this terrible virus. Here at the Neurology Care Center at the University of Maryland, we are doing our very best to keep our practice open and available to you. While we are not doing in-person visits currently, we do have an active teleneurology option for you to call in and schedule a visit via smartphone or computer with your neurology practitioner. We also can do visits via telephone as well. If you are an existing patient in our practice, please call 410-328-4323 to find out about how to set up a televisit or a telephonic call. If you are a new patient to our practice, please call the same number and we may be able to set up a new patient visit for you by teleneurology. My staff is working tirelessly to try to keep our practice available to you to help out during these very challenging times. Remember, wash your hands, maintain a safe social distance. If you must leave the house, wear a mask. We are here to help you and we are here to be with you through this crisis. Thank you very much.
