Meet Our Providers

 

Our providers are the core of our health care team. On top of seeing patients in our clinic, they cover call for our hospital and nursing home. They rotate evenings and weekends to assure that there is always coverage for our emergency room. They also staff our clinic in Geraldine. They are very proactive with our nursing home residents and meet with our care plan team weekly to assure the best possible care.
