Health and Wellness
🧠Mental Health Matters 💙
Your mind needs care just like your body.
Stress, anxiety, depression — they are not signs of weakness, but signals that deserve attention and support.
💬 It’s okay not to be okay.
You are not alone. Reach out, talk to someone, and take that first step toward healing.
Let’s break the stigma — because mental health is health.
Our Community Cares
At Purdy Medical Clinic, community care goes beyond our walls.
We are proud to support the efforts of our local community resources — from health and wellness programs, to food banks, to organizations that provide education, safety, and support for families.
When we work together, we build a stronger, healthier community for everyone. Cooperation between individuals, local businesses, and community organizations ensures that help is available when it’s needed most.
Together, we can make a lasting impact. 💙
Spotlight on Staff
Reflecting on 2025 at Purdy Medical Clinic
As we look back on 2025, we are filled with gratitude for the growth, learning, and trust that defined this year at Purdy Medical Clinic. From welcoming new team members to expanding access and availability for our patients, this year challenged us to grow while staying rooted in what matters most—compassionate, patient-centered care. We are thankful for our patients and community who supported us as we continued to build, improve, and strengthen our services. Every visit, conversation, and connection helped shape who we are becoming, and we look forward to carrying these lessons into the year ahead with renewed purpose and commitment.
January is Blood Donor Awareness Month
January is Blood Donor Awareness Month, and at Purdy Medical Clinic, we recognize the incredible impact one selfless act can have on many lives. Donating blood is more than a medical need—it’s a gift of hope, healing, and possibility for patients facing emergencies, chronic illness, and life-saving treatments.
We honor the everyday heroes who roll up their sleeves to help others and encourage our community to consider becoming a blood donor. Together, we can strengthen the health of our community and ensure that compassion continues to flow where it’s needed most.
January is Thyroid Awareness Month
January is Thyroid Awareness Month, and at Purdy Medical Clinic, we want to acknowledge how deeply thyroid health can affect everyday life. When the thyroid is out of balance, it can touch everything—from energy and mood to weight, heart health, and how you feel in your own body. Too often, people struggle silently, unsure why they don’t feel like themselves.
This month is about validation, awareness, and hope. Listening to your body matters, and so does being heard. At Purdy Medical Clinic, we are here to help you find answers, restore balance, and support you on your path to feeling well again.
