Most people don’t realize how many families in Wooster and surrounding areas are struggling just to get basic healthcare.

This episode hits different.

The Healthcare Gap No One Is Talking About: Mark Yoder and Viola Startzman Clinic

I sat down with Mark Yoder from the Viola Startzman Clinic, and what he shared opened my eyes.
We talked about:
The real reason he got into healthcare
The gap in care right here in Wayne & Holmes County
What people misunderstand about “free clinics”
How ONE insured visit can help provide care for 3–4 others
The mental health challenges most people don’t see
And the pressure of leading when funding gets cut

But what stood out most?

This isn’t just about healthcare.

It’s about people.

Families.

Real stories that don’t make the headlines.

Access to care isn’t a luxury—it’s something that impacts every single one of us, whether we realize it or not.

If you live in this area, this is a conversation you need to hear.
And if you’ve ever felt called to do something meaningful…
this episode might be the push you’ve been waiting for.
