The clinic will follow a consistent schedule Monday through Friday from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. The clinic will remain open over the lunch hour, then close from 1-2 p.m. each afternoon.

Minor renovations have been completed to the clinic building which mostly consisted of new flooring, paint and furniture.

This will be the second clinic to be opened and managed by Veterans Memorial Hospital in just over a year. The Waukon Clinic opened May 3, 2021, with three full-time providers and one part-time provider. The Postville Clinic will open with one full-time provider and one part-time provider. Both locations will work closely, sharing many services and staff, ensuring patients are seen by a medical provider at one location or the other as soon as possible with great continuity of care.

Both clinics ensure providers will be available at both locations, covering for vacations and time off.   Scheduling can also be done for both clinics by calling either location. The Postville Clinic will even retain the same phone number of 563-864-7221. The Waukon Clinic number is 563-568-5530.

Michelle Crary, Nurse Practitioner, will be the full-time provider in the Postville Clinic working four days a week. Michelle has over 10 years of nursing experience at both Gundersen Health and Mayo Clinic in La Crosse, WI as well as Winneshiek Medical Center in Decorah. She has been seeing patients at the Veterans Memorial Hospital Medical Clinic-Waukon for the last two months.

Dr. Thomas McMullan also continues to see patients at the Postville Clinic two days per week and will continue to follow his patients to Veterans Memorial Hospital whenever a hospital admission, a surgery or another hospital service may be needed.

Medical Assistant Casey Fisk will also remain at the Postville Clinic and will be a familiar face to all returning patients. Teresa Berg is a new face joining this health care team as a full-time receptionist, greeting patients, scheduling appointments and helping with medical and insurance billings.

Future plans for expansion of the Postville Clinic include a nurse Midwife as well as a Behavioral Health Specialist. For questions about the new Veterans Memorial Hospital Medical Clinic-Postville, call the clinic at 563-864-7221.
