Updated 12/1/2020
COVID-19 has certainly turned all our lives upside down. Our physicians place the safety of their patients and staff at the highest level of importance. For months now, we have made major changes to our office policies to do just that.
Screening for symptoms prior to appointments
Temperature checks prior to entry
Limiting accompanying guests
Streamlined patient check-in and check-out
Thorough cleaning before and after each patient
HEPA filters in all treatment rooms
Patients, staff, and physicians wear masks for entire visit
Separate entry and exit points
Extended time between patients for ventilation of treatment rooms
Option for secure video telehealth visits for all patients
INSURANCE COVERAGE
How to Know You're "Covered"
Insurance policies vary widely. Each private insurance company has a multitude of different plan options, making the question, "Am I covered?" sometimes a difficult one to answer.
The best way for us to verify your coverage is to provide us with your insurance plan and member ID number BEFORE your appointment. This way, our staff has the ability to verify that your doctor is contracted under your personal plan.
We strive to offer clear, available policies regarding our in-network and out-of-network plans as well as fair and affordable options for out-of-pocket medical costs. Please follow the link below for further detailed information regarding insurances.

BACK TO SCHOOL ENT HEALTH
September 7, 2020
While most kids are not yet back in person, a new school year has begun!
Sometimes a new year can bring up health concerns, like can your child hear properly, pronounce and know words at grade level, breathe through their nose, or if they are snoring or having sleep apnea which is making them tired during the day.
At Riviera ENT, Dr. Dale Amanda Tylor and Dr. Stephanie A Culver are experts at addressing these issues and more. Please call for an appointment 805-EAR-NOSE (805-327-6673) or visit our website rivieraent.com.

WE OFFER SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR CHRONIC COUGH
June 26, 2020
In the best of times, a lingering cough or endless throat tickle is frustrating for you, and possibly annoying to others.
With COVID-19, chronic cough can cause others to fear you or to worry that you may be a risk to their wellbeing.
There is good news: most chronic cough or throat issues, including tickle, postnatal drip, sense of "lump in the throat", are treatable.
Riviera ENT physicians are experts in determining the cause of the problem and controlling and often curing it. Dr. Stephanie A Culver and Dr. Dale Amanda Tylor have helped patients with months, years, or even decades of these problems to finally overcome them.
Call 805-EAR-NOSE (805-327-6673) to schedule an appointment today.
WE ARE NOW SCHEDULING SURGERY AGAIN
April 27, 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic has upended many aspects of our lives.
Doctors, like most, have had to change how they practice. As ENT physicians, we have not been able to operate except in cases of emergency. Moving forward, we have started scheduling elective surgeries in May and beyond, with enhanced safety protocols to keep you safe.
Please contact us at 805-327-6673 or info@rivieraent.com if you would like to schedule an appointment with one of our doctors. The health and quality of life of you and your family is our greatest concern.
STAY SAFE WHILE KEEPING YOUR HOME CLEAN
March 18, 2020
Thank you Cal Fire Riverside for publishing a reminder graphic of some common chemicals that are dangerous if mixed. Please be aware that certain chemicals when combined can lead to toxic fumes that can be very harmful to your health!
As always, keep your hands clean by washing frequently, especially when returning home from public spaces, after driving and touching surfaces in your car, after touching public doorknobs, if you cough, sneeze, or blow your nose, and before any food preparation. Keep your hands away from your hair and face. Cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze.
We will get through this, together.
