Dear Patient,
The physicians at Oak Mill Medical are committed to your health and well-being. New trends
and demands have impacted the delivery of medical services and this has prompted us to make adjustments to our practice.
Effective June 17, 2022, we will utilize hospitalists for our patients while they are in the hospital.
This has been a difficult decision but necessary due to the changing medical landscape.
Lutheran General has hospitalists with whom we have a close relationship. These doctors provide valuable inpatient care to hospitalized patients. After being discharged from the hospital we ask
each patient make a follow-up appointment with our office so we can continue appropriate care.
As a result of this change, we will expand our office hours in the morning for greater access.
We will continue to:
Answer our phones in person, not utilizing a call center
Offer same day appointments with our physicians and highly qualified nurse practitioners
Provide the time needed during in-office visits for your healthcare needs
Offer onsite laboratory testing and physical therapy
We remain committed to providing quality healthcare in our office and giving our patients the individualized care that each patient requires. We deeply appreciate our patients. Your well-being
is our top priority. We look forward to many years of partnership.
Sincerely,
Oak Mill Medical Associates
