Happy Labor Day to all workers - and a special thank you to the essential workers from healthcare workers to those providing us food.
I want to take this opportunity to thank my essential workers, also known as the Gibbons Optical Staff, for their hard work through the years and their diligence now during COVID-19 to keep the office safe. The hours we are open for business do not reflect the early hours they spend disinfecting and setting up for the patients or the work they take home that they did not have before COVID. Thank you Staff for all you do!
To all patients, friends and family, please continue to wear masks, keep physically distanced, and frequently wash your hands. Have a Happy Labor Day and thank you for choosing Gibbons Optical.
Dr. Karen
MESSENGER
Gibbons Optical updated their business hours.
As we work out the kinks of doing business during a pandemic, our hours will be adjusted and will change occasionally. At this time we are closed Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays. It has been great to see people again but we all need time to rest and grieve the things which have happened in our state, country and world. Please take a moment to remember George Floyd, his family and his community- our community.
Be safe, be kind.
Dr Karen
Our apologies if you tried to reach us today and got a busy signal. Charter Communications went down this afternoon so we had no phone or internet service. Try again tomorrow please.
We will be closed Saturday, Sunday and Monday for the holiday weekend. Have a safe holiday.
As we move into the final few days of the Minnesota stay at home order and life begins to take on the now normal next week, we will not be available for curbside service or in office service Friday May 15th - Monday May 18th. We will be back in office for curbside services and staff training on Tuesday and Wednesday next week with more in office services after those days. You may reach us through Dr. Bjorngaard's cell phone number (for emergencies) or for other needs and questions at the email addresses you may find on our website gibbonsoptical.com. Enjoy your weekend. Be safe. Be kind.
COVID-19 update
Some of our amazing staff will continue to be available for curbside pick up and emergencies until after the governor’s stay at home order has expired on Monday May 18th.
At that time, we will begin training with our staff on procedures for safely reopening to keep patients, guests and staff protected while they are at the office.
If you are staying home to prevent the spread, if you are working in health care or other essential businesses or wearing a mask to keep others safe, taking care of each other is what we must do to get by. Let’s do our part safely and we will see you soon.
Dr. Karen
We are taking a fall break so several staff members can take vacations. The office will not be open the new "pandemic hours" of Tuesday October 27th- Friday October 30th. We will be monitoring calls and messages remotely Tuesday- Thursday.
We will be back in office on Tuesday November 3rd.
Have a spooky Halloween.
Make sure you vote before you come see us that Tuesday!
The staff of Gibbons Optical wishes you the warmest of holiday greetings. We will not be in the office Thursday December 24th through Monday December 28th. May you find enough peace and joy to fill your heart as 2020 fades into 2021.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Welcome 2021. The staff of Gibbons Optical hopes for you a joyous new year. The staff will be out of the office Friday, January 1st through Monday, January 4th in celebration of the new year and reflection of the solitude of this winter season.
