Residents in the Victor area embarked on a campaign in
2000 to create a health center to serve the community’s health needs. The
Victor Health Center now celebrates its 10th anniversary in Victor and
the public is invited to celebrate this milestone.
“Although the healthcare industry continually changes
and shifts in light of the economy, population shifts, government policies, and
dynamics of providers, the Victor Health Center has continued to provide
excellent healthcare services to area residents,” says Bill Lynch, Victor
Health Center board president. “This anchor in our community has helped Victor
retain its vibrancy and sense of community. The clinic truly fills a vital need
and service to the residents who live in the community.”
Another key element is the re-opening of a pharmacy in
Victor. Victor Health Center, an affiliate of Grinnell Regional Medical Center,
and the pharmacy work together to meet the needs of patients. GRMC welcomes the
new Victor Pharmacy to the community and this event.
The Victor Health Center will celebrate its 10th
anniversary with a free brunch to the community and patients. The public is
welcome to join the clinic and GRMC, on Sunday, Sept. 30, from 10:30 a.m. to
12:30 p.m. at the American Legion Center in Victor.
The menu will feature made-to-order fresh omelets,
sausage from the Victor Locker, fresh fruit bar, mini pastries, and beverages. GRMC
employees will be serving the meal along with clinic providers Roy Doorenbos,
MD; Wendi Beck, PA-C; Michelle Rozmus, RN; and Shannon Nowotny, receptionist.
“We want to demonstrate our appreciation for all
Victor residents who have supported us through the past 10 years,” says Michelle
Rozmus, clinic nurse who has been with the clinic since it opened in 2002. “This
menu provides fresh, healthy foods with much provided by local sources. We’re
committed to supporting local businesses and producers while bringing a healthy
alternative to the breakfast scene in Victor. It should be a great time and I
hope everyone can join us.”
The clinic welcomes new patients, so any individuals
seeking a quality healthcare provider are invited to meet Victor Health Center
staff at the breakfast. Casie Olson, GRMC massage therapist who provides
massages in Victor, will also be available for questions.
