PeaceHealth reopens clinic

The PeaceHealth Family Medicine Clinic, which temporarily closed in early April, has reopened, according to a Wednesday press release.

The clinic, at 505 N.E. 87th Ave., Vancouver, was closed in part to help PeaceHealth’s medical system preserve personal protective equipment and navigate the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic. Staff have begun seeing patients through video and in-person visits.

Several safety measures have been put in place, which includes pre-screening patients for COVID-19 symptoms, the requirement of face masks for all patients and caregivers, and new protocol around physical distancing.

“We deeply appreciate the understanding and flexibility of our patients during these challenging times of COVID-19,” said Robyn Taylor, clinic manager for the Family Medicine Clinic. “We remain proactive in preventing the spread of COVID-19, the curve is flattening, and the clinic is open to safely serve your health care needs.”

To schedule an appointment, call the clinic office at 360-735-8100 or use the My PeaceHealth patient portal to schedule a video visit or in-person appointment.
