Happy Medical Assistant Recognition Week!
This week we’re celebrating our incredible Medical Assistants who bring compassion, skill, and teamwork to our clinic every single day. They’re the heart of patient care and an essential part of what makes FCFP feel like family.

We’re also proud to share that all four of these girls at First Choice Family Practice are now Certified Clinical Medical Assistants (CCMA)!!

Through our partnership with IHCC and thanks to the opportunities provided by Southeast Iowa Multi Specialty Clinics our team members, along with others have been able to complete their CCMA certification while continuing their hands-on work here in the clinic. As of last week, Sam officially graduated, completing the group!

At FCFP, we believe there are always opportunities for growth within our corporation, and we’re proud to support our team as they continue to learn, grow, and achieve great things. 💙

Join us in congratulating Maya, Sam, Kasey, and Ashlyn for their dedication and commitment to our patients!

Happy Boss’s Day to our fearless leaders Rich & Chey, professional problem-solvers and chaos-containment specialists.
If surviving Mondays was an Olympic sport, they’d take home gold. 🏅
Thanks for leading with humor, heart, and the occasional “we’ll figure it out.” 💙

🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

Did you know? 👉 About 5-10% of breast cancers are linked to inherited genetic mutations (like BRCA1 & BRCA2). That’s why knowing your family history- and considering genetic testing - can be such an important step in prevention and early detection. 💡

At First Choice Family Practice, we offer genetic testing through Myriad Genetics to help you understand your personal risk and take proactive steps for your health. 💕

And since today is October 3rd…{insert Mean Girls pun 📆}… we couldn’t resist reminding you that it’s the perfect time to think pink, get tested, and take care of yourself. 💗✨

📞 Call us at 641-682-0098 or send us a message to learn more about scheduling genetic testing this month!

📍301 W. Main St., Ottumwa, IA 52501
