Fox Family Eye Care opens in Blue Earth
It has been said that the eyes are a window into a person’s soul. It is also true that a person’s eyes can reveal a great deal of information about their health. “High blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, lupus, Lyme disease and a higher risk for stroke are all things that may be found during an eye exam,” Dr. Brittany Fox, who owns and operates Fox Family Eye Care in Blue Earth, says. “For instance, when examining the back of the eye, if kinks or bleeding from blood vessels are found – that can be an indication of high blood pressure.”

Small town clinic closures worry local leaders
Following Mayo Clinic’s announcement that it planned to consolidate its service offerings and close small clinics across a half-dozen southern Minnesota communities, a familiar mix of disappointment and frustration was the talk of towns across southern Minnesota once again. On Sept. 9, Mayo Clinic Health System announced it would shutter clinics in Belle Plaine, Caledonia, Montgomery, North Mankato, St. Peter and Wells by early December. Patients will have the opportunity to receive care at another location or with their chosen provider. Mayo Clinic’s Albert Lea Hospital and Clinic will also offer fewer services, with elective surgeries and procedures in orthopedics, podiatry, endoscopy, ophthalmology and gynecology will be relocated from Albert Lea to the Austin and Waseca campuses. Though the changes won’t directly affect Waseca, and in fact Mayo’s Waseca campus could see a few more patients coming in for select services, they reflect a major shift in Mayo’s specific operating model as well as general trends in rural health care. In addition to investing in its Rochester main campus and secondary campuses in Jacksonville and Phoenix/Scottsdale, the world famous healthcare institution has invested heavily to build up the Mayo Clinic Health System since 1992.
