Central Vermont Medical Center President and CEO Judy Tartaglia recently announced the expansion of services offered at its Waterbury Medical Associates office on South Main Street to create a multi-specialty clinic to meet the needs of Waterbury and surrounding communities.
"When rebuilding Waterbury Medical Associates after Hurricane Irene, CVMC took the opportunity to expand the services they offer,’ stated Tartaglia. As a result CVMC is pleased to announce two new specialist services at the Waterbury location.
Susanne Trost, a Board Certified MD of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism will work with patients to treat thyroid, pituitary and adrenal glands, metabolic disorders including diabetes, polycystic ovary disease and osteoporosis. The Central Vermont Women’s Health practice is offering women’s health services provided by certified nurse midwives Rebecca Montgomery, MSN and Christine Malcolm, FNP and by Colleen Horan, MD board certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
‘Since 1972, .family medicine clinicians have been providing care to patients in and around Waterbury,’ stated Tartaglia. ‘Board Certified Physicians Bill Cove, Jennifer Gelbstein, Christine Payne, Richard Burgoyne and Nurse Practitioner Alison Hobart,’ she continued, ‘are excited to expand their practice to include these specialties.’
The practice also offers services provided by a certified nutrition and diabetes educator, mental health services provided by Washington Country Mental Health counselors and x-rays provided by CVMC’s Diagnostic Imaging department. Waterbury Medical Associates is recognized as a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) with the National Center of Quality Assurance (NCQA) focusing on the chronic diseases of diabetes, hypertension and heart failure. As part of the PCMH classification, Community Health Team case managers work with the practice’s clinicians to improve the health of their patients.
CVMC Rehabilitation Services, previously colocated with Waterbury Medical Associates, will continue to offer physical therapy in their expanded space at the Thatcher Brook Inn location.
Waterbury Medical Associates is accepting new patients who need a primary care provider and have expanded their practice to include patients from the towns of Stowe, Morrisville and Richmond.
