Ugh, had to have emergency dental surgery on Wednesday. Dentist's website showed their separate rooms, HEPA system with lots of ACH, and staff in N95's.

Got there and they were wearing surgicals, didn't have N95's when I asked if they could switch, kept leaving the door open to the busy hallway, and the denstist and hygienist kept whining to eachother about coworkers that kept calling in sick and how it was messing with their staffing.

Currently isolating from my partner in the basement and hoping the RATs stay negative.

God speed. I hope you make it out unscathed. Keep us updated.

I'm going to be in this same boat shortly. I found an office that says they wear N95's. Of course, the receptionist says the "office" staff don't mask. This is the best I've come up with after literally calling 40+ offices in the area.
