Namaste Health Care

07/30/2025

Most of our patients have now been informed that Dr Early is retiring at the end of August, and Namaste Health Care will be closing. It's been bittersweet saying goodbye to patients over the last couple of months, since some of them have been with Namaste for 20 years.

It's time, though. We really are looking forward to retirement. Molly is finding it harder and harder to wake up for work!

Namaste will maintain our email address (namastehealthcare@gmail.com) and our website (namastehealthcare.com) for about a year.

We'll post a form on the website you can use to request your own copy of your records from us, and a form which you can use to request your records be sent to another medical practice. By next July, the remaining medical records will be turned over to a medical records management company and you can request copies from them. Details and a link will be posted on our website.

Betsy Barnes, younger sister to Kate Branham and older sister to Bridget and Theresa Early, died in her sleep on Wednesday, March 19. The clinic will be closed Tuesday afternoon March 25 and Wednesday all day March 26 for us to attend the services.

She was a wonderful, sparkling person, and I know some of our longer-term patients met her from when she would stop by to see us at the clinic, back when she was still working as director of Pike County Senate Bill 40 program supporting people with disabilities.

She will be missed. https://www.odonnellthurman.com/obituaries/Elizabeth-Betsy-Ann-Barnes?obld=39746151 #/obituaryInfo

Socket was working on something in our building this morning (Tuesday, September 10) and knocked out our internet. This also takes out our phones and fax, and the Patient Portal. Don't panic, it is being worked on. I expect it to all be fixed by end of day.

We'll be closed Monday, September 2, for Labor Day. Hope you can all have one last picnic/bike ride/trip to the lake/whatever, before fall really sets in.

Molly is now our full time clinic counselor, and working hard at it.

Sad news for all the Claire fans. She passed away on Tuesday, June 25, at the fine age of 17. Here's a picture of her in her youth, back in 2008, to remember her by.

And yes, we will be closed on July 4 for Independence Day.

We will be closed Wednesday, June 19, in honor of the Juneteenth holiday.

Claire had a bit of a health scare this week, but the vet thinks her mobility issues are due to arthritis. She successfully expressed her unhappiness at the vet office, and came home with some medication. Keep her in your thoughts, please.

Molly has taken up the job of being the counselor at our office with enthusiasm.
