"Before making these changes, we evaluated the needs of the people using our clinics and the dynamics of those communities," explained Sibley Medical Center Director of Clinics Laura Boelter. "Many of our patients have work or school commitments during the traditional Monday through Friday workday. By offering clinic hours before 9:00 AM, after 5:00 PM and on Saturdays, our clinics offer the kind of accessibility our patients need."
