Care starts long before you see a provider — and our Patient Access team makes that first step a great one. 💙

Whether they’re helping you get scheduled, answering questions, or making sure everything is ready for your visit, they’re the reason things run as smoothly as they do.

This week, we’re shining a spotlight on the people who keep everything moving and make patients feel supported from the very beginning.

👏 Drop a thank you below to show your appreciation for our incredible Patient Access team!

Honoring Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month

This April, we’re proud to recognize two of our Outreach Providers who make a meaningful impact in our community—Theresa Bonnema, CP, CPed, CFo, and Tim Leist, L/CO, both from Hanger Clinic.

Through their expertise and compassionate care, Theresa and Tim support individuals with limb loss and limb differences, helping patients regain confidence and mobility every step of the way.

They provide specialized care at WCHC’s Outreach SW Clinic every 3rd Wednesday of the month, making it easier for patients to access the services they need close to home.

WCHC was honored to welcome U.S. Representative Mariannette Miller-Meeks yesterday!

During her visit, she met with CEO Todd Patterson to discuss rural health transformation grants through OBBBA and gather feedback on how these programs are working—and how they can be improved.

Congresswoman Miller-Meeks is meeting with healthcare leaders across Eastern and Southeastern Iowa to better understand the needs of communities like ours.

We appreciate the opportunity to share our story and highlight the important work happening at WCHC every day.

We’re excited to welcome Margaret Ekroth, MD, who will begin seeing patients in Urology at the Ken and Rosemary Hanson Specialty Clinic on April 10. She will also provide care at WCHC’s Kalona Clinic.

Many in our community may recognize Dr. Ekroth from her time providing outreach services at WCHC. We’re thrilled to now welcome her as an official WCHC provider as we launch urology services.

On Friday, we hosted our annual WCHC Easter Egg Hunt and, despite the chilly weather, our crew made the most of it! 🥚🐰

We kept things quick this year, but the kids still had a great time racing around to collect eggs filled with candy and surprises—and even got to visit with the Easter Bunny!

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make it a fun and festive event!

💛 Wishing you all a joyful spring season!

Thank You for Staying Informed!

As we move out of respiratory illness season, we are seeing fewer illnesses and less frequent testing. With this positive trend, we will be pausing our weekly respiratory illness updates until the fall.
Thank you for your interest and for following along to stay aware and informed this season. We'll be back in the fall with new updates as needed.

Stay well!
