With the winter weather this weekend, here is a resource for warming if you need it. This is directly across the street from our office. If you lose power or don't have adequate heat at home, please come and get warm. No one should be left in the cold.

Happy New Year from Jill and Dr. Rice!!

2025 was a year of changes for our practice…the biggest of which was moving our office onto the campus of The Madewell House. We are so grateful for our cozy office space that brings peace and healing to our patients.

Looking forward to 2026 and wishing all of you peace and good health in the new year!

RECALL!! If you are using any formula from the company By Heart, discontinue it immediately due to a risk for botulism. You also need to wash all bottles and anything that the formula has touched in hot water or the dishwasher. Contact our office with any questions.

Great advice!

Did you know that thick or puffy coats can create dangerous slack in a car seat harness? 😬

Here’s a simple 3-step test to make sure your child’s coat is car seat safe:
1️⃣ Buckle your child in with their coat on and adjust until the harness passes the pinch test.
2️⃣ Without loosening the straps, take your child out and remove the coat.
3️⃣ Buckle them back in.

👉 If the harness is now too loose, that coat is not car seat safe and should be removed before every ride.

Keep your child warm and safe by layering thin, snug clothing or using a blanket over the harness instead!

After losing 86 pounds myself, I've become passionate about helping others do the same in a way that's safe and healthy and sustainable! I'm a huge believer in the GLP-1s -- they are an amazing tool but should be used correctly. If you need help, come see me!

We are seeing a lot of Influenza already! If you want a flu shot, we'd recommend sooner rather than later. Use your app or link to schedule your appointment today! Insurance will cover the shot if you have it, or we charge $20 for members for a regular dose flu shot or $65 for the high dose. Also check out the new FluMist home option!

With SNAP benefits not available in November, here is a map of our local resources for food insecurity. I'll post the PDF in the first comment as well. I've said this before; food is medicine and no one deserves to go hungry.
