Doctors open Brussels clinic

People in Brussels and area will
have more opportunities to see a
doctor in their own community due
to the Brussels-Seaforth Medical
Clinic which opened last month.
Dr. Janet Zettel will be seeing
patients on Mondays and Fridays
from 9-12 to begin and Dr. Mark
Woldnik will see patients on Tues-
days and Thursdays from 9-12.
"These are just starting hours,"
said Gwen Devereaux, head nurse
of Seaforth Medical Clinic.
"Depending on how busy we are
we will expand those hours."
The need for medical service right
in Brussels was increased after Dr.
W. Wong, a Wingham doctor who
served patients in Brussels, passed
away recently.
Currently two other doctors from
Wingham are spending a few hours
seeing patients in Brussels. They
are Dr. Brian Hanlon and Dr. J. K.
McGregor.
The new clinic, which is located
on Turnberry Street, fills a void of
service in Brussels, according to Dr.
Janet ZeUel.
"There's been a need for a stable
presence here," said Dr. Zettel.
"Hopefully we'll be able to cots-,
tinue to provide that." r
She said "people have been very
open and receptive to us being
here."
Dr. Zettel estimates 100 people
have transferred their records to the
office in Brussels. She says she is
already very busy with several
mornings already fully booked.
The clinic opened on Nov. 10 and
an official opening reception was
held on Thursday. It featured such
dignitaries as Brussels Reeve Gored
Workman.
There is a natural flow between
Seaforth and Brussels, said Dr.
Woldnik.
"The whole idea was to reach out
to people who can't get out, people
with young kids, elderly people
who we would normally sec in
Local man hopes
to start motor
sports club for
young people

A Seaforth man hopes a Youth
Motor Sports Club will provide
an enjoyable activity for local
young people.
Henry DeGroof is holding an
organizational meeting at his
home today (Wednesday) to see
if there is interest in forming
such a club.
The group would be open to
all ages but it would have a
special emphasis on youth.
"My main idea is to get the
kids off the street and interested
in something without having to
dig into their pockets for
money," said DeGroof.
The club might involve seeing
videos about car racing, working
on vehicle -related projects and
learning proper vehicle safety
rules.
The club organizer notes that
young people are going to be
driving cars soon and a motor
sports club could teach them
safe attitudes toward vehicles.
Anybody who is interested in
forming a Seaforth Youth Motor
Sports Club is welcome to attend
an organizational meeting on
Wednesday, Dec. 7 at 8 p.m. at
172 Isabella St. in Seaforth.
Anyone who wants more infor-
mation on the club can contact
Henry-at.(519) 527-0614.

TREATS AT NEW CLINIC - Nicolas Gowing, grandson of
Brussels Reeve Gord Workman, doesn't mind this trip to the
doctor's office. In fact, the one -and -a -half -year-old was just:

Bn Tlh-Seaforth Medical Clinic. ' .
"Eventually we would
like...full services."
Seaforth anyway," he said.
When service leaves a small
municipality like Brussels for an
extended period of time it's hard to
replace, said Dr. Woldnik. He said
it's important to maintain a continu-
ity of medical service in Brussels.
In the long run he would like to
see dietary personnel, midwives and
nurse practitioners at the Brussels
clinic.
"Eventually we would like to see
full services here."
The Brussels-Seaforth Medical
Clinic may increase traffic to
Seaforth Community Hospital as
doctors refer patients to the -hospi-
tal, said Bill Thibert, Chief Execu-
tive Officer.
"Obviously there will be increased
activity, we're starting to notice it
in our laboratory," said Thibert.
"We look forward to being of ser-
vice to the people in Brussels."
Dr. Zettel said it will also be
good for the local pharmacy to have
doctors right in the village.
The doctors will be able to do
routine medical checks as well as
drawing blood to be taken to the
laboratory at Seaforth Community
Hospital.
More -complex procedures will
take place at Seaforth Community
Hospital.
