Episode Details

Boone Health just launched a massive new primary care clinic in Glasgow, Missouri — three times bigger than the old one, with an extra doctor and an X-ray machine right in town. This game-changing expansion tackles Missouri’s growing “healthcare deserts,” where rural communities are losing access to basic care as hospitals shutter across the state. For locals like a 96-year-old patient’s son, it means no more long, painful drives to Boonville or Columbia. The clinic’s nurse practitioner, a native of Glasgow, has long dreamed of this moment — bringing quality care home to her community. And the impact? Patients are already coming from nine Missouri counties, proving how urgent this need is. Funded by the Boone Hospital Foundation, this clinic is just the start of Boone Health’s mission to anchor rural care — and connect patients to specialists via telemedicine — so no one gets left behind.
