Things were getting a little scary around the office today. There's never a dull moment with these two nurses! Happy Halloween! 👻🎃

The temps may feel more like summer but it's looking like fall at our clinic! Have you spied our new window art? 🍁🍂🎃 (Bonus points if you can find the photobomber in the window 🫣)

Call or walk in for your flu shot! We are open 8-5pm Monday through Friday.

The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) has released their recommendations for fall immunizations. This guidance is very similar to recommendations recently made by the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Vaccines are important. Vaccines save lives.

There's a lot of confusion in healthcare at the national level right now. Have questions? Not sure which vaccines are right for you? Come in and let's talk. We are here for you!

Have you driven by our office lately and noticed our beautiful windows? Summer is in full bloom at Mt Vernon Family Medicine! Thank you to Megan Dietsch for the lovely artwork which adds a pop of color to our clinic on main street.

It's Nurse's Week! I nearly missed it but would be happy to celebrate Megan and Heather any time of the year. These two are awesome nurses and take great care of our patients, and they take care of me, too. Starting a clinic means a lot of random jobs need done, and they have stepped up and helped in so many ways. Beyond being nurses, they've taken on painting, interior design, cleaning, shoveling snow, window tinting, community outreach, even entertaining my kids when they are at the office, and the list could go on...

I have been lucky to work with a number of great nurses in my career (thanks to all of you!) and while I'm grateful for you every day, I want to especially say THANK YOU during this week dedicated to you!
