Affinity closing Clintonville clinic

The Affinity Medical Clinic in Clintonville will close March 14. Clinic patients recently received a letter informing them of the closing.

“In an effort to be a good steward of our health care resources and keep costs low for patients, we recognize the importance of providing care in the right places and at the right times,” Dr. David Romond, president of Affinity Medical Group, said in the letter. “Clintonville is currently well served by the other health care provider present within the community.”

There is a ThedaCare Clinic at 370 S. Main St. in Clintonville.

There was no indication of how many jobs will be affected by the closing, although some of the employees at the Clintonville Clinic have been offered other jobs.

Staff at the clinic will assist people in transitioning to a different Affinity clinic if they wish and rescheduling appointments. For information, call 715-823-8700 or visit www.affinityhealth.org/clinics.
