What's New at PHC?
Physical Therapy is New Treatment Option at PHC	Our Permanent Home is Taking Shape!	Renowned Ophthalmologist Ardent Mountainclimber PHC Volunteer

Krista Clark Adds Physical Therapy to PHC's Growing Services PHC medical providers welcome each new specialty volunteer provider - it opens up more clinical options and cost effective treatments for their patients. Krista Clark is a great example: the owner of Wellspring Physical Therapy in Midway has been treating Clinic patients every Tuesday evening for over eight months now. She's glad for the opportunity to volunteer and share her skills. "Proper and swift treatment after an injury can make all the difference in a person's livelihood. I recently saw a woman, a self-employed housekeeper, who had fallen off a stool while cleaning a mirror. While she badly injured her shoulder, three treatments made her pain and strength improve so she was able to continue working and supporting her family". Krista encourages other physical therapists in the area to join PHC's volunteer corps.

PHC will occupy 5,000 square feet of the new building, which is slated to be completed in late 2009. The photo above shows the entryway and the wing that will house PHC. Our new home will allow us to extend our hours and expand services. A long-term planning process is underway to determine what additional community health services will be offered in the new facility. Click here to see a floor plan of the new facility.	Dr. Geoff Tabin Combines Two Passions and Does a World of Good An early love of mountaineering coupled with his interest in ophthalmology led Geoff Tabin to combine two passions into a fascinating and busy life. Dr. Tabin MD is Professor of Ophthalmology at the Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah and cofounder of the Himalayan Cataract Project, which for over 20 years has worked to eliminate blindness in the developing world. Tabin, a Park City resident, sees patients during our Thursday Chronic Disease Clinics once a month. People with Diabetes are at risk for many complications, including eye diseases that cause severe vision loss and even blindness. "At People's Health I see problems related to lack of eye care as well as the results of high blood pressure and diabetes. I diagnose and arrange for surgery including cataracts and diabetic pathologies. I provide free reading glasses for those who are unable to afford them. The population I see has a great need for diagnoses and care of their eye conditions and complaints. It is my privilege as part of the Park City community to provide this care to my neighbors in need." Learn more about volunteering here Read about Dr. Tabin's overseas work here
