Dear Patients, 

I hope this letter finds you in good health. It is with mixed emotions that I am writing to inform you of a significant change in our practice. After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to close Endocrine and Diabetes Associated practice effective March 29, 2024.

This decision has not been made lightly, and I truly appreciate the trust and confidence you have placed in me over the years. My commitment to providing high-quality healthcare remains unwavering, and to ensure continuity of care, I am pleased to inform you that I will be transitioning to a telemedicine platform at Capital Endocrine Care. Although this change places me outside the current insurance network and will not be working with insurance plans, I remain committed to providing you with the best possible care offered through a direct payment model. 

You may visit the website at capitalendocrinecare.com for updates. To schedule an appointment prior to April 1st, please contact the current office number at 301-468-1451. 

After April 1, 2024, you may contact Capital Endocrine Care to schedule appointments at 240-599-7772 or office@capitalendocrinecare.net

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the privilege of serving you as your healthcare provider. The relationships formed with patients like you have been the cornerstone of my practice, and I am committed to making this transition as seamless as possible. Additionally, if you wish to obtain a copy of your medical records, kindly complete the medical records form available on our current website.

I value your understanding and look forward to continuing my commitment to your health and well-being through my new telemedicine platform.

Thank you once again for entrusting me with your care. Wishing you continued good health.

Sincerely,

Dr. Yemul Almecci
