March, 2021
Dear Patients,
I would like to let you know of the changes to my plans of returning to the office. To say this past year has been a challenge would be quite an understatement. Along with so many other things that have changed, I am finding a growing desire to pursue other personal goals in my career life. Subsequently, I am not planning to continue the practice of optometry. This has been a difficult decision, made with careful consideration, but nonetheless challenging to reconcile.
I am thankful for being given the chance to care for you and your families. I have been so lucky to have met and worked with such wonderful patients as you. It has truly been my pleasure to have gotten to know you over the many years.
I will miss you all but am confident in the excellent care you will continue to receive at Helmus Optometry.
Wishing you all the best,
Dr. Talaga
