Healthy Communication and Boundaries

Caring for a community full of people I know and love is truly a blessing and an honor. Serving friends, neighbors, and families in the place I call home is something I am deeply grateful for. Because our community is close-knit, it can sometimes make professional boundaries a little more challenging.

To provide safe, organized, and equitable care for all patients, all medical questions, concerns, appointment requests, and medication requests must go through the office or patient portal. Messages sent through personal Facebook accounts, social media, or private text messages cannot be answered.

Using the proper channels ensures that your health information is protected, your care is documented appropriately, and your request is handled in the most timely way possible. It also helps protect time outside of clinic hours so that I can rest, spend time with my family, and continue serving this community well.

Thank you for respecting these boundaries and helping us care for our community with compassion, integrity, and excellence.

 Using the patient portal is the best way to communicate with our office and ensure your questions or requests are handled promptly.  You are also welcome to call the office at 740-998-9058 during our regular office hours if you need assistance or prefer to speak with someone directly.
