Our Commitment to a Safe, Clean Clinic

Every visit to Wasatch Foot & Ankle Institute follows the same standard: a clean environment, careful screening, and a team that puts your health first.

How we keep every visit safe

Wasatch Foot & Ankle Institute maintains ongoing safety protocols in both our Farmington and South Ogden offices so that every patient — from a same-day emergency to a routine follow-up — can be seen in a clean, well-managed environment. These practices are simply part of how we run our clinic, day in and day out.

Before your visit

If you are feeling unwell — with a fever, cough, chills, or even mild flu-like symptoms — please call ahead so we can help you reschedule. Coming in when you're contagious puts our staff and other patients at risk, and we're always happy to find you the next available appointment once you're feeling better.

Visitor & waiting room guidelines

We keep the number of people in our clinical spaces to what's needed for your care. If you are accompanying a patient, we ask that you drop them off at the front and wait in your vehicle rather than in the waiting room, unless you are the parent or guardian of a minor patient. Only patients with a scheduled appointment are permitted in treatment areas.

Cleaning & sanitation

High-touch surfaces — exam tables, chairs, door handles, and equipment — are disinfected before, during, and after appointments. We ask all patients to practice good hand hygiene while in our office, and hand sanitizer is available throughout both locations.

What to expect at your appointment

You can expect a clean exam room, a team that has followed the same sanitation routine before your visit, and staff who are attentive to your comfort and questions. If you have specific concerns about your appointment — because of a compromised immune system, a recent illness, or anything else — let our front desk know when you call, and we'll do what we can to accommodate you.

Common Questions

Clinic safety FAQs

Can someone come into my appointment with me?

Patients are welcome to be accompanied to the office, but we ask that anyone not being seen wait in the car rather than the waiting room, except for the parent or guardian of a minor patient. This helps us keep our clinical spaces uncrowded and comfortable for everyone.

What if I feel sick on the day of my appointment?

Please call our office before you arrive if you have a fever, cough, chills, or flu-like symptoms. We'll help you reschedule for as soon as you're feeling well, so you can be seen without putting other patients or staff at risk.

How often are exam rooms cleaned?

High-touch surfaces and equipment are disinfected before, during, and after every appointment. This is a standard part of how we prepare each room, not something reserved for specific circumstances.

Are same-day emergency appointments still available?

Yes. We continue to hold same-day appointments for emergencies such as ingrown toenails, sprains, and fractures. Call the location nearest you and our team will get you in as quickly as possible.

Do I need to do anything special before I arrive?

No special preparation is required. We simply ask that you practice good hand hygiene while in our office and let us know ahead of time if you're feeling unwell so we can help you find the right time to be seen.
