Family physician Dr. Martin “Rocky” Lyons Jr. wants the public to know avoiding the doctor now may result in future problems.

“The slowdown in physician’s offices is directly influenced by the fear of being around someone sick and fear of leaving the house,” Lyons said. “My concern is I have patients who have congestive heart failure and are diabetics. They are getting in dire need of medical attention that you cannot do over the phone.”
