🚧 Parking Lot Improvements at Kalona Clinic 🚧

We’re excited to share that we’ll be updating the parking lot at our Kalona Clinic starting Monday, March 30!

Construction will take place over approximately 3 weeks and will be completed in two phases:

Phase 1: March 30 – April 10
Phase 2: April 13 – April 17

During this time, parts of the parking lot will remain open, and we will continue to provide access for patient parking.

We appreciate your patience as we make these improvements to better serve you. Please consider allowing a little extra time for parking during your visit.

Thank you for your understanding!

Important Notice Regarding Phone Calls from WCHC

We are aware that some patients may not be receiving phone calls from WCHC, even though our staff has made multiple call attempts. At this time, these issues appear to be related to cell phone carrier disruptions—most commonly impacting US Cellular customers—and not WCHC’s phone system.

If you are expecting a call from us and have not received it, we recommend:
• Checking your phone’s spam or blocked call settings
• Saving WCHC phone numbers as contacts
• Contacting your cell phone carrier if issues continue

🧦💙 Rock Your Socks at WCHC! 💛🧦

Last week, WCHC staff wore their brightest, boldest, and most mismatched socks to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day.

Observed on 3/21, this day raises awareness and celebrates inclusion—the date represents the three copies of the 21st chromosome in people with Down syndrome. Wearing fun socks is a simple way to start conversations and show support.

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped spread a message of inclusion across WCHC—we loved seeing all the creativity!
