Services at I-70 Medical Center and Family
Clinic-
Ron Baker, CEO of I-70
Medical Center
It
has been a privilege to meet with so many people over the past few
weeks, to talk about the services we provide at the I-70 Medical
Center and Clinic. In this process, we have found that many people
continue to have questions about some of our capabilities. I would
like to provide the answers to some of the more common questions.
The I-70 Medical Clinic is a physician office providing a full range
of family medical care. Dr. Charles Lea, Dr. William Brown and Mary
Dolan, P.A. are here each weekday, to care for your routine medical
needs. As your family doctor, they can cover everything from annual
physicals to diagnosis and treatment of any medical problem. They will
also work closely with any specialist you may now be seeing, to
provide for your specialized medical needs.
While appointments are always recommended, you are welcome to walk-in
anytime between 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Our clinic
is located in the modular building immediately north of the hospital.
In the future, our plans call for a permanent structure to be added to
the north side of our hospital.
For more urgent needs, the I-70 Medical Center has a fully staffed
Emergency Department, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Physicians
and specially trained staff are always available to care for your
needs. While we are prepared to care for traumas and very critical
needs, most of our emergency care is not so dramatic. Lacerations, the
pain of kidney stones, sprains, broken bones and other less serious
problems make up the majority of our emergency treatments.
It is the diagnostic capabilities of the I-70 Medical Center that
provides the convenience of care right here at home. When you are
injured or in pain, we can diagnose the severity of your injury
quickly at our facilities. Radiology can provide x-rays or CT scans,
and the lab runs most of their diagnostic tests 24 hours per day, 7
days per week.
When you stop by our clinic or emergency room, you will discover that
most of your health care needs can be satisfied right here at our
facility. We are also working to bring to our Medical Center, many of
the specialists that you drive great distances to see. We know that
your time and resources are valuable. Our goal is to conveniently
provide medical services close to your work, your homes, and your
community so you can spend your valuable time in more pleasurable
pursuits than travel.
Ron Baker is the CEO of I-70 Medical Center, where he provides
administrative oversight to all business, administrative and executive
functions of the medical center. Ron came to us by way of Franklin
Medical Center in Hampton Iowa where he was the previous CEO and
provided leadership and guidance on developing a much needed Community
Wellness Center located on the Franklin Medical Center Campus. Ron is
an avid KU fan which is abundantly evident when speaking to him. He
and his wife Ellie have a son living in Cincinnati Ohio, and a
daughter living in Denver Colorado.
