Grand opening of Wellness and Longevity Clinic
A ribbon cutting where everything went right! Heidi Walker, joined by others from CMC opens the clinc.
Heidi Walker, PA-C, was a busy person during Monday’s official grand opening of the Caribou Wellness and Longevity Clinic on the Caribou Medical Center complex. The official opening was designed to let people walk through the facility, meet the providers, and preview the kinds of services that are offered by the clinic.
Walker is a believer in an approach to wellness that incorporates a patient’s full range of health needs into a responsive wellness plan.
“What’s different over here? It’s more of a prevention emphasis. We stress not just targeting a problem—you know, you come in with cold symptoms or because your chest hurts or a myriad of problems. Here, the clinic really focused on expanded services to make your health-span longer. We have an emphasis on longevity—grabbing those markers that can help mitigate the risk of heart disease, cardiovascular risks, cancer risks—we can measure those. We can measure and mitigate them,” Walker.
Walker is already familiar to many in the area. “I have patients that I’ve seen ever since I got here ten years ago, and some that will come over to see me for one or two specific things. I have people who travel to come here for some services.”
“I would have people not settle for feeling there’s really a lot of things we can do to extend lifespan. They can live longer, with vitality, and look forward to that. It’s an exciting thing!”
Other services at the clinic are provided by a team of health care providers, and include massage therapy and aesthetician services. Courtney Stanley, Debbie Perkins, and Jesse Wageman, along with the office staff and others, are now open for appointments.
