Towne HT Home Family Medicine Ex p e r i e n c e H e a l t h Medical Minute Inside this issue: From the Desk of Dr. Choi This year, our Airstream took us to the Florida Panhandle, then on to Orlando, Miami, and the Florida Keys. As some of our patients predicted, we loved the sugar-sand beaches of Florida’s Emerald Coast. We appreciated the energy of Miami Beach, contrasted to the relaxed life of Key West. Kim and I found entertainment in looking through 55+ communities in Florida, as well as DASH, the Kardashian boutique. Dr. Johnson did not do his cycling trip this year, but would have done a trip to Las Vegas by the time you read this. Clinic Happenings Get your vaccines early! Flu vaccine is recommended for anyone 6 months or older. Options include high dose for seniors, live nasal for healthy 2 to 49 year olds, thimerasol and “functionally egg free” Flucelvax, and quadravalent vaccines in 2014. We have a limited supply of “free” flu vaccine for kids (up to 18 y.o). All others should go to your favorite pharmacy for shots! Doc Jack Healthcare Reform comes to Your Neighborhood Apple Health will offer health care coverage for individuals with annual income less than $15,864, $26,952 for a family of three; so more people can get covered.
