Rinehart Clinic welcomes new staff to our healthcare team
 

Dr. Eli Andersen, NDWe are thrilled to welcome Dr. Eli Andersen, our new ND. That’s right, ND – Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. He will join the care team in early July and will start seeing patients in August. Dr. Andersen will take an integrative approach to primary care, with a focus on wellness and on finding and treating the underlying causes of illness. 

Dr. Andersen received his degree from National University of Natural Medicine in Portland. A life-long Oregonian and avid kayaker/surfer/paddle-boarder, he recently relocated to North Tillamook County and is looking forward to being part of the community. He is also fluent in Spanish and Portuguese so will be a natural fit with the rest of our bilingual team.

Marge Jozsa, Rinehart Clinic CEO, is pleased the clinic will be able to offer a naturopathic approach to primary care. “It is unusual for a Federally Qualified Health Center to have a Naturopath as part of the team,” she said. “I believe Dr. Andersen will take our integrative approach to healthcare to a whole new level.” 

We also recently welcomed a new Registered Nurse to the team:  Delta, who has a strong focus on community health and patient-centered care, specializing in diabetes education.

She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Oregon Health Sciences University, and is a Certified Diabetes Educator.

An Important Notice to Stacey’s Patients:  

 
Stacey Agee, our Adult Nurse Practitioner, is retiring. We are grateful to Stacey for the compassionate care she has provided to those in our community. We know her patients will miss her, and so will we.

Fireworks sales benefit Rinehart Clinic


The big blue fireworks booth is once again set up at of the Little Apple in Manzanita this 4th of July season. Sales will take place through July 5. 

The booth is a fundraiser for the Rinehart Clinic and the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay (EVC). The booth has operated for many years thanks to a committed group of community volunteers. The booth sells an assortment of patriotic gear, and fireworks for all ages (only the varieties that are legal in the State of Oregon).

We recognize that a healthcare clinic and fireworks sales make an unlikely pairing. We have found it is a good way to connect with the community and raise awareness about the clinic and the Emergency Volunteer Corps. Proceeds from the sales are split evenly between Rinehart Clinic and the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay.
