Ogden Legacy and BCH enter into agreement

 

Ogden Legacy and Boone County Hospital recently entered into a lease agreement for a new medical clinic here. Terms state that the hospital will lease space on a monthly basis for the first three years. A down payment of $60,000 was due at the signing of the lease. After three years the hospital will pay an additional $200,000 and take ownership of the building.

Boone County Hospital CEO Joe Smith sees the Ogden clinic as a way they can commit to being in the community a long time.

“From our perspective, the important thing is we’ve had a physician in Ogden for 50 years with Dr. Vermillion. We want to make sure that we have the kind of facility that we can practice in, to insure that we are going to have a physician there for years and years to come. It’s a great upgrade  in terms of the clinic itself.”

“And because we have Dr. Glawe there full-time with Dr. Vermillion, the number of people they are seeing is really growing.”

The Ogden medical clinic converted from McFarland Clinic in 2002 and under Boone County Hospital was renamed Boone County Family Medicine. Dr. Caleb Glawe began practicing here in 2009  and now has a full practice.
