Beaver Island Michigan

Am I correct that the HC is going to have to look for grant money to furnish a dental office? I recall that the HC board had an opportunity to buy Dr. White's equipment and insulted her by offering only $1 and now has to raise thousands for that insult. Which comes first, the chicken or the egg? Sho...

I'm so disappointed. What happened to the Doctor Porter who I heard was coming as the island dentist?

I'm hearing the new dentist has been selected, very positive event for the meeting tomorrow. Well done by all involved.

Mr. Gillespie, Doc Martin reruns continue to put a smile on my face. I see your Dr. Martin's service to the HC as very positive and a step closer to a full time doctor practicing on the island. PAs and NPs are great but they are not the same as having the option of a local full time physician being ...

I am becoming encouraged by the HC communicating with the public. My wife wants me to be more positive with my views and I agree. If my island source is correct, a new dentist may be introduced at tomorrow's meeting and that will be very positive.

HC, Thank you for a provider update, a positive sign of reaching out to the public. What is the update and status on the search for a dentist replacement? Please keep up the improved communications.
Pirate, I don't think it is the same Doc Martin. I'm sure he gets that a lot.

Dr. Grassmick, Your reply is encouraging for the improvements to emergency services and I'm sure due to the efforts of many including you along with Mr. Moore for which I express my appreciation. My concerns stemmed from articles in the past expressing financial and EMS staffing issues. I continue t...

To publically respond to a private message posed to me: No, I'm not living on BI or a taxpayer. We visit for a week or two in July each year. We hope to buy and retire there for a portion of the year in the very near future. I firmly believe that now is the time to show an interest in local issues a...

Mr. Taylor, It is obvious that the HC is in violation of their agreement with the taxpayers of the township. I would think the question to the township board at the meeting is what action is the township board going to take with the HC in the interest of the taxpayer's dental health. My recommendati...

Is Walter Palmer the dentist coming to the island? Is he any relation to the lady who started the lawn service?

Seriously, I was hoping for the sake of the island that a dentist has been selected and setting up practice by now.

Any update on the new dentist?

Ms. Kohls, I can give you my history from birth to present but my guess is that it will not satisfy you. If you don't think I'm Darby Campbell I can live with that fact. Or if you think I am Richie or Ken or somebody else which is not the case I can live with that fact also. I would encourage you to...
