History
La Pine Community Clinic, LLC, began operations in July 2002. It was formed after Bend Memorial Clinic, decided to close its operation in La Pine, which left a void in primary care for the area. Seeing a need, and not wanting to relocate their families, Lisa A. Steffey, DO and Corey Newman, PA, collaborated with Central Oregon Independent Health Services (COIHS) to continue providing primary care for the residents of the La Pine, and surrounding areas of South Deschutes, North Klamath, and North Lake Counties.
In March 2003, Dr. Steffey acquired the practice from COIHS, and after receiving the Rural Health Clinic Federal Designation from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services in August 2003, has expanded services to include 7 providers, including three board certified family practice physicians, three physician assistants, and one family nurse practitioner, and 26 full and part-time staff to support front office, back office, and ancillary services. |
