Specialist Care

The providers of SWCC work closely with specialists in Bend, Portland and Boise to assure each patient gets the best quality care in the most efficient manner possible.  Often a conversation between physicians can minimize or eliminate the need for out of town travel.

Referrals to specialists are coordinated by Denice Murrill.  She would be happy to answer your questions.

SWCC is also pleased to host a variety of specialists who visit either once or twice a month.  They include:

• Cardiology (Dr. Bruce McLellan or Dr. Gavin Noble)

Billing

For better or worse, billing is an important part of modern medical practice.  We accept almost all medical insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid.  We have a sliding scale fee for patients without insurance and we strive to ensure services are affordable.  We work hard to send out bills in a timely and accurate fashion.  If you have questions about your bill, please contact Pam Durr.

Office Management

Our clinical team is lead by our office manager, Barb Oliver.  She would be happy to answer any questions you may have.
