Clinic to open

From Page 1 '

THE DOCTORS NOTED THAT the Rappahannock Medical Clinic will have its own pharmacy and Xray equipment. “Though we expect to be able to treat 95% of the patients ourselves, the serious cases will be referred to area hospitals, Dr. Martin said. Pointing out that there are hospitals in Front Royal, Warrenton, Culpeper andLuray.he noted that the patients would probably be referred to the hospital that they preferred. Probably the most serious will go to Charlottesville, Krebser added. When the clinic opens, Dr. Martin will be there all week, while Dr. Krebser will only work parttime, continuing his affiliation with the Old Dominion Clinic in McLean. They will be assisted by one nurse and a receptionist. The clinic will be on Gay Street. , ^ .. . Dr. Martin attended Medical School at the University of Virginia and Dr. Krebser at George Washington University.

RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY has been without a full time doctor since Dr. John P. Snead retired three or four years ago. However, Dr George M. Berberian of Manassas bought Dr. Snead s office and has operated a part-time clinic. Recognizing the need for a full-time doctor after Snead retired, a group of citizens formed a committee to try and attract a doctor to Rappahannock. After several years and no results, they disbanded.

About a year ago Dr. G. A. Bendlage of Luray became a resident of Rappahannock and opened an office near Boston for limited practice. Dr. and Mrs. Bendlage were interested in riding and hunt club activities here.D
