Crutchfield Dermatology
Award Winning Newsletter January 2009



cheers

34th Infantry Division Headquarters

Hello Friends,
2009 brings some exciting new changes to the Crutchfield Dermatology business office. In July, we welcomed – on a temporary basis – Darrin Rosha, Esq., a longtime professional colleague of Dr. Crutchfield, who performed the function of our clinic administrator while conducting our search for a world–class, permanent administrator. With the many great changes we have made in the past six months, we are very excited to announce that, after considering an outstanding pool of candidates, we are indeed bringing on a world-class administrator in David Fleming (See related story on Dave in the newsletter below).

As Dave gets settled in throughout this month, our thoughts are with Darrin as he prepares for his February deployment to Iraq with the Minnesota Army National Guard. Darrin will be serving as the Chief of Operations Law with the 34th Infantry Division Headquarters. Darrin leaves his friends at Crutchfield Dermatology as well as his beautiful wife, Valorie, to whom he was recently married on December 20, 2008. Our best wishes to Darrin and Valorie for Darrin’s safe and speedy return.

We like to keep in touch with our patients and friends through our monthly newsletter. In addition to providing you with some of the most up–to–date dermatologic information, our newsletter offers fun‚ helpful, and informative articles on a variety of interesting topics. As our practice continues to grow‚ we thank you for your confidence in us. As always, we appreciate your referrals.

Dave

Dave Fleming, New Clinic Administrator
We are pleased to welcome Dave to Crutchfield Dermatology! He brings decades of health care experience combined with strong results and being known as a patient and staff advocate. His training and education includes two MBA’s and board certification as a clinic administrator. Dave has served in multi-specialty and single specialty clinics, Fairview Hospitals, and the U.S. Army.

Dave sees Crutchfield Dermatology as a solid, well-established, patient-centered practice that is also the model for the future. With little exposure to staff so far, he believes it is clear that Crutchfield Dermatology has top notch employees, and he is honored to join them. He believes in servant leadership where it is his job to help the staff reach their performance potential and feels blessed to be able to join such a professional team.

Dave looks forward to interacting with patients if they have concerns and questions.

MLK

In honor of Martin Luther King’s Birthday…

We will have an educational monograph, photograph, and an actual signature of Dr. King on display in our office on January 15th. We welcome and encourage you to view them if your office visit falls on this important day.



MLK

Martin Luther King‚ Jr. Day

As we pause to remember the accomplishments of Martin Luther King Jr.‚ it is especially important to connect the holiday on January 19th more intentionally with the principles upon which Dr. King built his life, his service, and the movement that he championed-the principles of nonviolence. He believed that applying the principles of nonviolence in all areas of one’s life would ultimately bring about the Beloved Community, the end goal of nonviolence, where differences are resolved peaceably and reconciliation occurs among adversaries.

Thank you

Like to hear what others are saying?
I wanted to thank you and your clinic for the service and care that you provided me. My decision to see a dermatologist was mainly career driven. I saw it as an investment to feel more confident in meetings and interviews. Well, it seems the treatment plan including the Aramis Laser may have paid off. My skin feels and looks better than I can remember in a long time. Due in no small part to your efforts.

I wanted you to know that you should be proud of the work you do and that you make a difference in people’s lives.

Regards,
Mark G. St. Paul, Minnesota
