Thank you

From Kathleen Nelson, ARNP

Greenfield

I want to thank all my patients of the Fontanelle Clinic for their trust the past 12 years. It was my policy to give you options regarding your health. It was my privilege to assist you in your health care decisions.

It was not my choice to stop serving you. I feel it was a combination of financial/economic decisions, politics and personalities. I believe that some staff get administrative support with health issues, and other staff with family health issues – not so much.

It is important to me that you know that no patient was harmed and there were no patient care or safety issues.

I miss seeing all my patients and encourage you to find a new provider that meets your needs. I loved seeing the children from the little ones through the teens and the sports physicals.

Thank you to Deb, my receptionist, during the 12 years who kept me “on track” and was such a support. Your computer and nursing skills helped me so much, Clayton. We worked together well especially during the four months where another decision made us run the Fontanelle Clinic Tuesday through Friday with just the two of us. Many thanks to both of you.

Life changing decisions like retirement should be a personal choice. Thank you to all who have sent your best wishes with cards and phone calls.
