John A. Miyano, M.D.
Dear Colleagues and Patients:
I wanted to take a moment to let you all know that after 27 years of continuous clinical work, I will be taking a brief sabbatical this year. I will be out of the office between July 1, 2023 and September 30th, 2023.
I am very fortunate to have four outstanding partners in my practice who will be taking care of the needs of my patients until I return. My medical assistant, Christina, will still be in the office the majority of the time that I will be out and will help coordinate any care issues that arise.
Rest assured that I will be returning to practice in the fall. I am simply taking some time to spend with family and friends and exercise the non-medical parts of my brain.
Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to seeing everyone upon my return in October, with renewed energy and enthusiasm!
Sincerely,
John Miyano
