Gladstone Health Center to host children's health fair
If you are a Clackamas County parent or guardian looking for your child's new doctor, dentist or mental health specialist, visit the Gladstone Health Center Fair from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 12, at 18911 Portland Ave. in Gladstone.
Grownups can meet the staff and learn about services, register their child as a new patient, sign up for Oregon Health Plan insurance and enter raffle drawings.
Meanwhile, the kids can collect Frisbees and other gifts, create their own "pedal powered" fruit smoothies, and take home lunch bags and other school supplies (while they last).
The Gladstone Health Center is Clackamas County's only health center just for kids that offered children primary, dental and mental health care needs in the same office. Doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, dentists and behavioral health therapists seek to partner with parents, working together with parents to provide their child exceptional care.
Many health plans are accepted, including Medicare, Oregon Health Plan, and various private health plans. For those without insurance, the health center offers low fees based on income.
