Register for the Feb. 24 Grande Rounds – From Same-Day Care to Referrals: How Your Clinic Works for You

The Boca Grande Health Clinic and Foundation invite you to From Same-Day Care to Referrals: How Your Clinic Works for You, part of our 2026 Grande Rounds community education series, on Tuesday, February 24, presented in partnership with Friends of Boca Grande.

Moderated by Connie Duckworth, Trustee on the Boca Grande Health Clinic Foundation Board and member of the Boca Grande Woman’s Club, this program brings together Clinic CEO Mark Driscoll and the Clinic’s physicians, Ray James, D.O., and Bret Kueber, M.D., for a practical discussion on island healthcare—followed by ample time for audience questions.

What we’ll cover

  • The Clinic of the Future – update and what to look forward to for new services
  • Emergency vs. same-day (urgent) care on the island – when to use the Clinic and what happens when you call 911
  • Referral to specialists – how the Clinic helps you see a specialist and who decides where you go
  • Audience questions and discussion
