Retirement Announcement
I will be retiring March 31, 2022 and will not provide healthcare after that date. If you need to see me before the closing date, I am seeing patients in clinic until March 11, 2022. Please call my office to schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience (360) 697-6547.

It is important for you to find a new physician to assume your care and prescribe any medications you may need. It is never too early to start this process and I encourage you to do so as soon as possible to ensure a smooth transition to your new healthcare provider. If you need help in locating a new physician/surgeon, you should contact your primary care physician and health plan as they may have a physician directory of participating providers. Other resources include the county/local medical society or a physician referral service. Be sure to check with your health insurer to be certain the physician(s) you select and the services he/she provides will be covered by your health plan. If you require urgent or emergency care, please go to your nearest Urgent Care Clinic or Emergency Room.

I will continue to maintain the privacy and security of your medical record information according to state and federal law. Upon request, one free copy of your health record will be made available for you to pick up at the office, or faxed to any physician that you choose, before the office closing date of March 31, 2022. If you cannot come into the office during that time, you can request a copy of your records to be sent to you. There will be a $0.25 per page charge to cover the cost of printing, and a $10-15.00 processing/shipping fee for your medical records. Download and print this authorization form. You will need to complete it for records to be copied and made available to you. Please return the completed authorization form to my office prior to the closing date. After March 31, 2022, health record requests and signed authorization forms should be sent to the address below with instructions for where to send a copy of your health record. After March 31, 2022, there will be a $1.24 per page charge for up to 30 pages, and $0.94 per page charge for more than 30 pages, and a $28.00 processing/shipping fee for your medical records. This address will be maintained for the period of time mandated by state and federal law and is the proper address for all record requests mailed after the closing date of March 31, 2022.
