After more than two decades of providing dental services at the Fort HealthCare Handeyside Clinic, this transition marks a significant step forward in expanding access to dental care in Jefferson County. The clinic will officially begin serving patients on Monday, March 30, 2026.“The move to Johnson Creek allows us to maintain and expand access to dental care for our community,” said Dr. Olivia Nichols, CEO/Executive Director of Rock River Community Clinic. “As the only Medicaid dental provider in the greater Jefferson County area, we are grateful for the outpouring of support to make this possible.”In the next few months, RRCC will be adding medical and behavioral health services to the Johnson Creek Clinic. By integrating patient services, RRCC will minimize overhead costs and maximize patient access to affordable services. The Johnson Creek clinic was made possible through the generous support of major donors, including Jones Dairy Farm, Fort Community Credit Union, First Citizens State Bank, the Otto Bremer Trust Foundation, Roots &amp; Wings, the Fort Atkinson Community Foundation, and Delta Dental. Ongoing support from Fort HealthCare, the Greater Watertown Community Foundation, and Watertown Regional Medical Center was also crucial to the project’s success.“With medical, dental, and behavioral health care under one roof, we reduce barriers to accessing care and improve patient health outcomes through integrated care,” states Dr. Nichols. “This expansion will aid us – the collective greater Jefferson County region – in reducing health disparities.”As part of its capital campaign, RRCC also secured funding to relocate its Watertown clinic and renovate its Whitewater clinic. The Whitewater expansion will utilize the previously vacant lower suite for administrative offices, creating additional space to support the continued growth of medical services. By late summer, RRCC plans to transform the Watertown clinic into an outpatient, youth-focused behavioral health center.In 2024, RRCC medical &amp; dental clinics served 3,176 patients across 8,250 visits. In 2025, those numbers increased to 4,291 patients for a total of 12,417 visits across all clinic locations. With these expansions, RRCC projects serving 6,800 patients annually by 2028, totaling an estimated 23,000 visits.RRCC will host a public open house in late summer, offering community members an opportunity to tour the clinic and learn more about RRCC’s mission to provide quality, comprehensive health care for all.To learn how you can support Rock River Community Clinic, visit RockRiverCommunityClinic.com/support-us/, or contact Dr. Nichols at director@rockrivercommunityclinic.org or 262.472.6839.Rock River Community Clinic (RRCC) is a community health center that provides comprehensive and cost-effective health care services to ensure all community members have access to the care they need.At RRCC, all community members are welcome and accepted, regardless of ability to pay, with discounted prices for patients who are uninsured or underinsured (high deductible plans).
