The Clyde Enterprise
Growing for 100 years
The Bellevue Hospital (TBH)
welcomes 2016 by celebrating 11
years in the 1400 W. Main Street
facility. TBH is one of Bellevue’s
biggest employers, with over 400
employees.
The hospital is beginning its
99th year of Caring for the Communities We Serve, after opening
its doors on March 6, 1917.
Some 5,000 local and area residents turn to TBH each month for
inpatient, outpatient and emergency medical procedures and
care. And, in 2015, the hospital
recorded 413 births in the Family
Birthing Center; 1,416 admissions;
16,474 emergency room visits;
3,729 surgical procedures; 224,371
Lab procedures; 31,981 imaging
procedures; 33,239 rehabilitation
procedures; and 66,237 outpatient

Medication Management Clinic
TBH added a new service at the
end of 2015 by opening the Medication Management Clinic, located
in Building 1, Suite D, directly
behind the 1400 W. Main St. hospital facility.
The Medication Management
Clinic will focus on anticoagulation therapy. Anticoagulants
are medications patients take to
prevent and control the growth
of blood clots. Examples of these
medications include Coumadin
(warfarin), Heparin, and Lovenox
(enoxaparin). These types of
medications may be taken for
many different medical conditions
including deep vein thrombosis,
pulmonary embolism, heart attack
follow-up, atrial fibrillation, heart
valve disease or replacement, and
stroke.
The Medication Management
Clinic staff will offer training and
education, constant monitoring,
communication between the clinic
and the patient’s primary care
physician, and a personalized treatment plan given by a Certified
Anticoagulation Pharmacist.
Anyone taking anticoagulant
medication is eligible for the Medication Management Clinic after
being referred by their physician.
Most insurances will cover this
service but patients should check
with their insurance provider prior
to being referred.
TBH’s Medication Management
Clinic may be reached at 419-4845970.
Pain Management Center
The Pain Management Center at
The Bellevue Hospital is located in
Building 1, Suite C, behind TBH
at 1400 W. Main St. The center
is open Monday through Friday.
There is also a satellite office located in Clyde at 402 W. McPherson
Highway.

pain, or pain that affects their
quality of life and the ability to
participate in normal activities can

Doebel’s Flowers celebrates a century of business in Clyde
By Scott Mahoney
[email protected]
When a company has been around
for 100 years, one thing is for certain: it
has seen its share of ups and downs.
As Doebel’s Flowers celebrates it’s
100th year of business in Clyde, the
family-owned business is no different.
While it’s seen its share of good and
bad times, Eric Doebel believes there
are definitely reasons that can explain
the longevity.
The business began in 1916, when
Eric’s great grandfather, Arthur Doebel, came to Clyde from Norwalk and
opened up Arthur Doebel and Sons
Greenhouse. In the 1930s, Wilbur and
Marie Doebel took over the business
and later changed the name to Doebel’s
Flowers.
In 1986, Eric’s father, Clifford Doebel
took over the business and ran it until
his death in 2013. Now Clifford’s wife,
Cheryl, and Eric run the family business.
Of course, when a business has been
around for two world wars, the Great
Depression and everything else that’s
happened in the last century, there’s
going to be some rough times.
“Throughout the years, there’s been
ups and downs with the economy,”
Eric Doebel said. “There’s times where
we’ve been doing really well and other
times where we’ve been scraping by. If
the weather isn’t great one year, it can
really affect the business. While there
are new trends that come through, you
Arthur Doebel began his family’s business back in 1916 when he opened A. Doebel and Sons
Greenhouse. The name was later changed to Doebel’s Flowers and remains a staple in the Clyde
community.
have to keep certain things constant to
keep going.”
These days, big box stores — such as
Walmart, Home Depot and Lowes —
seem to be running most small, familyowned businesses out. Eric said his
family has see much of the same in the
past and believes they can continue on,
just like they did in the past.
“You often hear about the rise of
the box stores, like Walmart coming
in, and it being a new thing,” he said.
“I remember my dad talking about it
happening before with Heck’s and Mr.
Wigg’s and box stores that came in, but
then they fade out and ago away. Eventually, shoppers come back to the family
mom and pop businesses.”
So how exactly does a small business
compete with mega-corporations?
“While you want to be aware of new
trends in business from the box stores,
there are certain business practices
that remain constant,” Eric said. “Good
customer service is one of the major
ones. Also offering a quality product is
another.
“You can get a lot of good things from
Walmart as soon as it comes off the
truck. A lot of times, though, they don’t
take care of it as well, because they
don’t know much about how to take

Clyde Heritage League expands museum
Progress has certainly
been taking place with the
Clyde Heritage League.
If you haven’t been by the
museum lately, you are in for
a great surprise.
The long held dream has
become a reality with a
1,890 square foot addition
including a 1,276 square foot
basement being added to the
18th century former Episcopal Church which now houses the museum. Purchase
of the adjoining land to our
Buckeye Street museum has
been pursued for many years
and when it became available, the league was able to
proceed with another step
towards expansion.
In 2014 plans were begun
to hire an architect which
led to the hiring of StuderObringer of Norwalk as
our general contractors.
Construction began on Nov.
for the $334,000 expansion
project.
Funding for this project is
as a result of the generosity
of many benefactors, including Thaddeus Hurd who was
instrumental in creating the
financial ability for the continuance of Clyde Heritage
League.
Our curator has been
very busy, packing, cataloging and moving much of
our collection to keep it
as safe as possible during
the construction phase.
When done, exhibits will be
refreshed with many moved
to new locations within the
museum.
The Clyde Heritage
League has been in existence
for 41 years with our museum having a history in Clyde
since 1932. The League is
proud to be the owners of
the Clyde Museum, The
General McPherson House
(open by appointment) as
well as the Heritage Hall.
Please look for our grand
opening of the museum addition.

Cardiac Rehab Department.
Pulmonary Rehab is
used in the treatment
and management of
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

similar issues.
Patients admitted to
the program will receive
information about
medications, oxygen

Women’s Choice Award
The Bellevue Hospital
has received the 2016
Women’s Choice Award
as one of America’s Best
Hospitals for Emergency
Care. This evidencebased designation is the
only Emergency Care
award that identifies the
country’s best healthcare
institutions based on
robust criteria that considers female patient satisfaction, clinical excellence, and what women
state that they want from
a hospital.
The list of 360 award
winners represents hospitals that have provided
exceptional patient care
and treatment, signifying
The Bellevue Hospital’s
commitment to meeting
the highest standards
in Emergency Care for
women, their families
and their community.
The America’s Best
Hospitals for Emergency
Care are hospitals that
consistently rank among
the best of the 3,800
hospitals reporting on
the performance of their
respective Emergency
Departments. They are
judged on the following
Emergency Department
performance measures
reported by the Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS):
1. Average number of
minutes before outpatients with chest pain or
possible heart attack got
an ECG,
2. Average time
patients spent in the
Emergency Department,
before they were admitted to the hospital as an
inpatient,
3. Average time
patients spent in the
Emergency Department
before they were seen by
a healthcare professional,
Average time patients
spent waiting in the
Emergency Department,
after the doctor decided
to admit them as an inpatient, but before leaving
the Emergency Department for their inpatient
room,
Average time patients
spent in the Emergency
Department before being
sent home,
Average time patients
who came to the Emergency Department with
broken bones had to wait
before receiving pain
medication,
Percentage of patients
who came to the Emergency Department with
stroke symptoms who
received brain scan
results within 45 minutes
of arrival,
Percentage of patients
who left the Emergency
Department before being

Largest Open-Bore
MRI in Four-County Area
TBH’s Radiology
Department still offers
one of the most sophisticated fixed (1.5 Tesla)
magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) unit – the
Vantage Titan ™ MRI
unit from Toshiba. The
ultra-short, open-bore
MRI is nearly 20 percent larger than TBH’s
previous MRI. The MRI
also features the largest
available clinical field-ofview (FOV) of 55 x 55 x
50 centimeters allowing
your doctor to see what
he needs to see but still
keep you comfortable
while in the scanner.
MRIs use a combination of radio waves and a
strong magnetic field to
create computer reconstructed images of the
body.
Because of the wide
opening, this new Vantage Titan unit is perfect for claustrophobic
patients, especially since
70% of all procedures can
be performed feet first,
meaning the patient’s
head can be kept outside
the bore.

care of the plants. I’ve had people say that when
they buy stuff from us, it doesn’t die like when they
buy it from other places.”
Still, those bigger stores can be stiff competition,
especially when it comes to price, according to
Doebel.
“It can be hard to compete on price sometimes,
but you get better quality and service from a family business. We can also offer things that bigger
stores just can, like mixed pots, fuller hanging baskets, custom garden baskets and design.
“We’re also able to offer things that you just don’t
see other places, such as our birds-of-paradise.”
Of course, treating customers right also goes a
long way in growing a successful business, as well.
“We’ve always maintained great customer service
through the years,” Doebel said. “My dad would
always say that if someone comes in disgruntled,
he would learn the most from them on how to better serve our customers.
“I’ve had customers, who came here from a long
distance, come back with friends because they
were so happy with the service and products they
received from us. Word of mouth can be a great
way to help grow a business.”
The Doebel’s are extremely proud of the legacy
they’ve created in Clyde, according to Eric.
“Over the years, our family has donated time and
money to various organizations in the community,”
he said. “We’ve also been a big supporter of the
schools — such as with the auditorium and the
arts. I think we’ve become a landmark and have created a legacy. Even in the summer time people are
asking us about the holiday petting zoo and winter
village.”
Of course, the petting zoo and winter village
have become a tradition all of their own.
“We have people come to the petting zoo and tell
us they remember their parents bringing them to
it years ago, and now they’re bringing their own
children or grandchildren to it,” Doebel said. “It’s
become a tradition that spans across many generations.”
Doebel’s Flowers is located at 401 West McPherson Highway and has two acres of greenhouses, a
garden center and a flower shop. For more information, call 419-547-9538 or visit www.doebelsflowers.com.

(TBH) has earned The
Joint Commission’s Gold
Seal of Approval for
accreditation by demonstrating compliance
with The Joint Commission’s national standards
for health care quality
and safety in hospitals.
The accreditation award
recognizes TBH’s dedication to continuous compliance with The Joint
Commission’s state-ofthe-art standards.
TBH underwent a
rigorous unannounced
on-site survey where a
team of Joint Commission expert surveyors
evaluated TBH for compliance with standards
of care specific to the
needs of patients, including infection prevention
and control, leadership
and medication management. During the survey,
the team interviews staff
and patients; reviews
documents; examines the
physical surroundings;
and spends time observing how each organization delivers care. Then
the team evaluates the
hospital’s overall performance against their
national standards and
reaches an accreditation
decision.
“We voluntarily take
part in the accreditation
process to guarantee
that the health care we
provide is the best that
it can be,” Michael K.
Winthrop, president and
CEO of The Bellevue
Hospital, said. “Achieving accreditation is an
accomplishment we’re
proud of, and rightfully
so. It means we have
made the grade, that we
have been recognized for
complying with national
standards that promote
quality care on an ongoing basis.”
Founded in 1951, The
Joint Commission seeks
to continuously improve
health care for the public,
in collaboration with
other stakeholders, by
evaluating health care
organizations and inspiring them to excel in
providing safe and effective care of the highest
quality and value. The
Joint Commission evaluates and accredits over
18,000 health care organizations and programs
in the United States.
The Joint Commission
is the nation’s oldest and
largest standards-setting
and accrediting body in
health care.

Edward Jones maintains
traditional values
This full-services
brokerage firm has one
priority that has never
changed since the firm
began more than 90
years ago: service to
individual investors
when and where it is
convenient for them. To
accomplish this, Edward
Jones has focused on
building a network of
one-broker branches
that are conveniently
located for individuals. It
doesn’t matter whether
those individuals live in
the rural heartland or in
the suburb of a sprawling metropolis, Edward
Jones is there.
In fact, Edward Jones
has more branch-office
locations than any other
brokerage in North
America. Its branchoffice concept was
conceived by Edward D.
“Ted” Jones Jr., son of
the firm’s founder.
“Ted Jones thought
investors should be
served by someone
who lives and works in
their community,” said
Jim Weddle, the firm’s
managing partner. “He
believed, and we still
believe, that personal
service means being
available for clients, even
if it means going to their
homes or businesses.”
That’s why Aaron
Wilson, an Edward
Jones financial advisor
in Clyde, maintains an
office on Main Street in
town.
That’s also why Wilson
will stress long-term and
diversified investments.
“We meet with clients
face to face and emphasize the importance of
choosing quality investments that have the
potential to perform well
over time. At Edward
Jones, we prefer a longterm approach to investing,” he said.
“The decisions clients make when they
meet with us will affect
their financial futures.
They are big decisions
that deserve undivided,
personal attention,” he
added.

for a year, and they
weren’t ready for me,”
Kuehner said. “I was
sitting around doing
nothing. And then I went
to the other extreme at
an urgent dental care
in Columbus where I
worked 12-hour days.
“Unless you have a
practice to go into right
out of college, it can take
awhile to find your place.
I was going through that
grind for 10 years.”
Now that he owns his
own practice, Kuehner
feels he’s finally found
his place.
“Having grown up in a
small town, I’ve always
had a tie to places like
Clyde,” he said. “Now
that I’ve grown up, I’ve
learned to slow down.
This is a great place
to be. I really want to
become a part of the
community.”
Premier Dental recently took over care for Dr.
Craig Stoldt’s patients,
after Stoldt recently
retired from his practice

Aric Kuehner recently became the owner of Premier Dental. His
journey from Minster to Clyde was a long and unexpected journey.
rld
Wo
For most people, the
idea of getting a root
canal done is enough to
make them want to run
as far away from a dentist as they can.
For Aric Kuehner
though, it actually made
him want to become a
dentist himself.
Kuehner is now the
owner of Premier Dental, located at 510 East
McPherson Highway in
Clyde, after buying the
practice from Jim Burson recently.
“I came here to fill
in for Dr. (Jim) Burson
when he went on medical leave,” Kuehner said.
“After about a year of
filling in for him, Dr.
Burson offered to sell me
the practice.”
When Kuehner first
heard about the opportunity in Clyde, he was
practicing dentistry in
Mansfield.
“I was practicing in
Mansfield, prior to that,
and for some reason it
wasn’t as busy as we’d
thought it would be,”
he said. “He had to cut
my hours, and I heard
about the opportunity
in Clyde. I drove from
Mansfield to Clyde for a
year, which is about an
hour and fifteen minutes
each way.
“I’m currently living
in Fremont, which is
a much shorter drive
now.”
So how exactly did
Kuehner get started in
the field? He admits it’s
a bit of a weird story.
“Originally I was
going to go into medicine, but towards the
end of my senior year
of college, I kind of got
burned out,” he said. “I
took a year off between
undergraduate and dental school. I worked at a
trucking company.
“I had a filling, that
turned into my needing
a root canal. I was really
in a lot of pain with it,
so I went to my dentist.
He adjusted my bite a
little bit and said that
should help. The next
week it was even worse
pain.
“I told him, ‘Doc, I
don’t know much about
dentistry, but I think this
tooth needs a root canal.
If you don’t root canal
it, I’m going to pull it.’
After he fixed my tooth,
it felt so much better,
and I thought, ‘Why not
dentistry?’”
It was that thought
that led to the realiza-
tion that dentistry just
might be the perfect
career for Kuehner.
“My mom’s whole side
of the family is artistic,
and I’ve always like science,” he said. “I think
dentistry is the perfect
blend of art and science.
Dentistry is an art, and
growing up I was always
drawing and using my
hands artistically.
“It really was my needing a root canal with I
was 22 years old that
made me say, ‘Hey, I can
do this!’”
When Kuehner first
came to Clyde, he didn’t
expect to be there long.
That all changed though,
as he got to know the
people.
“I really thought I was
going to be here for two
to three months and
then look for something
else,” he said. “My staff
here is amazing, and I
fell in love with them. I
grew up in a small town,
in Minster, so I’m used
to small towns.”
After graduating from
dental school, Kuehner
bounced around the
state trying to find his
place.
“I’ve lived in a number of different places:
Dayton, Cincinnati,
Columbus, Mansfield
and now here,” he said.
“I was just trying to find
the right niche. I worked
many years in clinics and
different places. And it
kind of burnt me out.”
Kuehner did his
undergraduate at Xavier
University, in Cincinnati.
He then attended dental
school at Ohio State
and then did a one-year
residency at Ohio State
University Hospital.

Old Fort Bank helps economy show signs of improving
The 2015 economy
showed signs of improvement, as Old Fort Bank
continued to assist clients. Over 350 clients
realized their dream of
home ownership and
we were pleased to have
made nearly $130 million
in loans to commercial,
small businesses and
retail clients.
Mark Egbert, Vice
President and City
Executive commented,
“We have money to lend
and Old Fort clients can
anticipate a much more
personal approach to
their banking needs. As
a community bank, Old
Fort is more than simply
a lender we build relationships and focus on
our clients.
Because we know our
clients and our clients
know us, we are able
to provide superior,
personal service. We
are pleased that Old
Fort Bank employees
have controlling interest
in the bank… because
we are an ESOP… our
clients are being served
by an owner of the bank
and our associates take
extreme pride in that
ownership.”
“Our goals in 2016
remain consistent with
our business model.
Putting people first,
integrity, reinvesting in
our communities through
volunteerism, monetary
and in-kind contributions, and grant assistance. We take pride in
being a well- capitalized
and managed bank.
We remain focused on:
strong liquidity, conservative credit philosophy,
having knowledgeable
and experienced staff,
and delivering superior
client service,” stated
Dee Blackburn, Senior

Young students train during a kids taekwondo lesson at Hill’s Tae Kwon Do, on South Main Street in Clyde. The martial arts studio offers
classes for people of all ages.
Local martial arts studio still fighting
By Scott Mahoney
[email protected]
CLYDE — He’s been in
the same location for 22
years now, but sometimes
Gerald Hill has to wonder
if he’s invisible.
Hill is the owner
of Hill’s Tae Kwon
Do, located at 113
S. Main Street, and
while he’s had a
number of students
over the years, he is
Hill
still amazed at how
many people don’t
even realize his business exists.
“I had a young man
sign up the other day for
training who grew up
in Clyde,” Hill said. “He
never knew we were here.
“Every year I run into
somebody who comes
through the door and
says, ‘How long have you
been here?’ and I have to
tell them, ‘Since before
you were born.’”
Those who have known
about Hill’s business
though, have found a
place that teaches differ-
ent forms of martial arts
to people of all ages. Hill
teaches taekwondo, Brazilian jiu jitsu, Muay Thai
and kickboxing for those
interested in learning self
defense, mixed-martial
arts fighting, a
different way to
work out or any
other reason.
Hill’s love
of martial arts
began when he
was young after
some people
showed him a
few moves. At that time
though, he lived in Tiffin
and Green Springs, and
nobody in the area was
offering martial arts training.
“There was really no
place to go,” Hill said.
“My dad had gone to
Korea, during the war,
and showed me one or
two moves. I knew just
enough to get beat up.”
As he got older, Hill
began taking lessons
and really began taking
his training seriously.
He now is a six-degree
black belt in taekwondo,
a fourth-degree black belt
in jiu jitsu and recently
became a black belt in
Gracie jiu jitsu.
It wasn’t long before
Hill decided to start sharing his knowledge with
others and opened up his
own martial arts studio in
Clyde.
Hill admits that there
were some growing pains
when he first began
teaching.
“I like to be creative
and have the freedom to
take my own approach,”
Hill said. “Maybe at first,
when I opened up —
since I went to a really
hard military-style Korean
karate school — I probably offended people by
yelling too much. The
sparing was hard, and
we weren’t accepting
excuses.”
Some more experienced trainers told Hill
he needed to be more laid
back and friendly with his
students.
“I guess it’s safe to say
that I started out as John
Kreese (the leader of the
Cobra Kai in the film
‘The Karate Kid’),” Hill
said, “and then after all
these years, I’ve kind of
adopted a more Mr. Miyagi approach. I just didn’t
know any better, when I
was first starting out.”
Hill and his students
now travel to various
tournaments around the
area to compete, bringing
home a number awards in
process. He also tries to
bring well-known martial
arts trainers and fighters
to the area to help train
students.
Hill offers a number of
classes throughout the
week for children and
adults, alike.

The Bellevue Hospital has been providing
Q uality C are, C lo se to Ho me since we first
opened our doors in 1917. The benefit of our
hospital is measured not only in the health
and wellness of the individuals touched by our
excellent patient care, but also in community
services and activities offered through disease
prevention, health promotion and education.
Together we continue to work toward
improving our community’s health status. We
also provide jobs and support our local
schools and businesses by the taxes we pay
and the products we buy from area businesses.
We are always here to help those without
insurance or a means to pay for needed care.
