Summary

The Beaver Island Rural Health Center announced a June 2018 visiting-specialist schedule: podiatrist Patrick Richmond on June 4, dermatologist Murray Cotter on June 8, and optometrist John VanWagnen, whose originally announced June 1 visit was later moved to June 15. BIRHC also announced Richmond podiatry clinics for July 30 and August 27.

Evidence limits

These first-party notices establish planned appointments and contact routes. They do not establish that each clinic occurred, patient volume, or medical outcomes.

Sources

  1. The notice scheduled Charlevoix Eye Center optometrist John VanWagnen to see patients at BIRHC on June 1 and supplied an appointment number. This establishes planned availability, not completed visits or patient counts.

  2. A follow-up changed VanWagnen’s scheduled visit from June 1 to June 15. This supersedes the earlier date notice and demonstrates why later forum updates must be reconciled rather than counted as separate clinic events.

  3. The notice scheduled podiatrist Patrick Richmond to see patients at BIRHC on June 4 and supplied the center’s appointment number. This establishes planned availability, not completed visits or clinical outcomes.

  4. A later notice repeated the June 4 podiatry appointment. It corroborates the earlier schedule but does not establish attendance or completed care.

  6. BIRHC announced Patrick Richmond’s August 27 podiatry clinic and later said appointments remained available. This establishes planned availability, not completed visits or patient volume.

  7. The health center scheduled dermatologist Murray Cotter for June 8. The same notice is documented separately as a dermatology-clinic event; this record groups the contemporaneous visiting-specialist schedule.
