👶 Are You a Grandparent? Might be time for Measles Booster!

With a recent measles outbreak reported in King County, Washington, it's crucial to ensure you're protected—especially if you have new grandchildren.

Even if you were vaccinated years ago, your immunity might have diminished over time requiring a booster right about the time you have grandkids!

We currently have **4 doses of the MMR vaccine** available **immediately** at our clinic.

- **No appointment necessary**
- **Call us now at 503-675-1137 and we get you a 10 minute booster pit stop*
- **Guaranteed administration by Thursday**

Protect yourself and your grandkids from measles, mumps, and rubella. The MMR vaccine is a safe and effective way to prevent these serious diseases.

Don't wait—these doses are limited and will be administered on a first-come, first-served basis.

For some strange reason, apple maps is showing the correct address:
12511 SW 68th Ave Suite 200
Portland OR 97223
but sending driving directions to the Lake Oswego location from 2014! The map, if you zoom out a bit, should have us inside a TRIANGLE looking shape made by I-5, 217 and 99-Pacific Highway

Friday January 19, 2024
The first time since 2007 we weren't able to operate the clinic Monday-Tuesday. We were unable to call, access schedule, internet and without heat had to drain all the water from all the buildings.

With last night ice storm and apparently another 55,000 power outages due to trees and Dr. Kassay's path to the clinic is completely blocked by downed trees. So another day of triage acute medicine.

When we briefly had power on Wednesday, Sam worked the entire day to authorize more than 300 refill requests.

Apologies to anyone that drove to an empty clinic. Earlier this week. There seriously was no way to contact you.

Next week we are bringing in some additional help to process and reschedule nearly a weeks' worth of appointments and background work.

Watch your email for several newsletters in the next few weeks.

* Welcoming our new PA's
* New pre-check-in system
* Discussion of how we are able to schedule appointments in days to 1 week vs most clinics' 4-10 weeks and 6-8 months for new patients AND how we all need to work together to ensure this level of availability.
* Creating a community place for our patients to share tips of how to prepare for these events that are now the new norm. ie: A group of neighbors need to meet and designate one garage to house a "Water Main Shutoff Key". If one house needs it, likely every house on the block will too. $25 on Amazon and it could save $10s to $100s in water damage.
