Happy National Doctors’ Day! We have lots to celebrate this year, with the addition of pediatrician Dr. Lily James and primary care physician Dr. Muaj Lo to #TeamMCC. We are delighted that Dr. John Wallace has returned to us on a part-time basis to provide Welcome to Medicare and Medicare Wellness visits (sorry, folks, Dr. Wallace is not doing primary care).

They join Dr. Lawrence Goldyn, MCC’s Medical Director, Dr. Wade Gray, and Dr. Barbara Kilian in giving our community the #bestcareanywhere. On Doctors’ Day and every day, MCC is proud to have such an outstanding group of doctors on our team. Happy Doctors’ Day to the best doctors anywhere!
