Continued Improvements at KRHC Clinic
Specialists move to main clinic area

The renovations at the Kossuth Regional Heath Center clinic are nearing completion, with the final phase involving the relocation of the specialty clinic next to the main clinic area.

Beginning the week of April 14, specialists will see patients in the newly revamped section of the clinic located between the main clinic area and the hospital registration desk.  Patients that enter through the main hospital doors will turn right to find the sign and door marking the specialty clinic registration desk, waiting area and exam rooms.  Patients seeing a specialist are asked to register in this new area, and not at the main hospital or clinic registration desk.

“We anticipate many benefits with this relocation project,” said KRHC administrator Scott Curtis.  “The proximity to the main clinic will increase the communication between the specialists and our medical staff, and moving the exam rooms out of a high traffic hallway will improve the privacy and comfort for our patients.”

KRHC partners with a wide variety of physicians to provide specialized care in the following areas: cardiology, dermatology, ear, nose and throat, nephrology, neurology, oncology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, podiatry, pulmonology, rheumatology and urology.
To make an appointment for the specialty clinic, please go through your family physician or directly contact the office where the specialist is based.  Please be sure to specify when scheduling the appointment that it is for the Algona clinic.  For more information, call Leann Engelbarts at 515.295.2451, ext. 232 or 515.295.3192.
