When I was interviewed for this position, I was asked if limtited medical services bothered me. I said no. This morning I searched the medical services in the area on google. King Salmon is a town of 443 people. The chamber of commerence site listed a mental health clinic, a health clinic, an alcohol counseling center and a physical therapist. Wanting a little bit more information I asked google for the number of doctors in King Salmon. Only the physical therapist came up on the list. According to the city data site King Salmon has emergency services which have limited highway, airport, and float plane access. Services are provided by volunteers and a health aide. I tried one more site to find a list of doctor(s) in King Salmon. I tried the yellowpages.
King Salmon yellowpages is 14 pages long. If you were to take all the Anchorage businesses out of it, it would probably be two pages, maybe. No doctors were listed. I'm not sure who runs the health center, maybe the volunteers.
Todays plan make appointments to see all physicians so I know I'm set when I get there. Buy a great first aid kit.
Just a side note: The town can't be too bad, no lawyers were listed either.
