One of the things I love about our office is the people behind the care. We are so fortunate to have three wonderful providers who work together with one shared goal, taking care of our patients. Our amazing Dr. Goedken, whose dedication to family medicine has touched so many lives, alongside Jennifer, our wonderful nurse practitioner who has been part of our office family for 15 years! And now, we are excited to welcome Abbie, a physicians assistant, who joins our team to help care for our growing number of patients. It takes a special team to make a difference. From the experience and dedication already here to the new hands joining us, we are growing together, and we couldn’t be more excited about what lies ahead!
We’d love to welcome you to our office! From the front desk to the exam room and everything in between, our team is here to help make you feel cared for, heard, and right at home. If you’re ready to become a patient, visit our website and fill out our family medicine application or our wellness application. We’ll take it from there! We’re here. We’re growing. And we’d love to have you join our family.
We’re excited to officially be accepting new family medicine patients, depending on your insurance. Whether you’re looking for a doctor for yourself, your family, or simply a place that feels a little more like home, we’d love to welcome you to ours. If you’re not looking for primary care but are interested in weight loss or hormone/testosterone therapy, we’re welcoming new patients for those services as well. Give us a call and let our BOO BOO CREW take care of you!
As we celebrate the Especially for You Race this Sunday, we’re reminded of the strength of those who have fought breast cancer, those still fighting, and the loved ones standing beside them. One simple reminder we can all share: early detection matters. Staying up to date with recommended screenings and paying attention to changes in your body can help find breast cancer earlier, when it may be easier to treat. Know your body. Keep your screenings up to date. For every survivor. Every fighter. Every family. We’re especially for you.
Flu season is here, and getting vaccinated can help lower your chance of getting the flu and can also help reduce the risk of serious illness if you do get sick. It’s one simple step that can help protect you, your family, and those around you as we head into the busy fall and winter months. If you’re one of our Family Practice patients, this is a great time to check in with us about getting your flu shot. So grab your pumpkin spice, pull out the sweaters, and let’s head into October taking a little extra care of ourselves!
Things are really starting to come together around here, and look at all this extra room! As our new spaces take shape, we’re making room for more ways to care for you, while still keeping the family-practice care you’ve trusted for over 50 years. From primary care and young families to weight management, hormone health, testosterone, vasectomies and our growing wellness services, there’s a lot brewing at Family Physicians of Cedar Rapids!
Every office needs that one person who keeps things organized, keeps us on track, and somehow keeps all of us together! We’re so thankful to have you as part of our office family. You do so much behind the scenes, and we appreciate you more than you probably realize! We hope your day is filled with birthday wishes and lots of laughs! Happy Birthday! We’re so glad you’re part of our family!
Here are a few ways to use this last weekend of September to focus on yourself: Schedule a Wellness Check: If you haven’t had your annual physical or screenings yet this year, now’s a great time to get them on the calendar. Get Outdoors: The weather is cooler, the days are still long, and moving your body in fresh air is one of the simplest ways to boost your mood and immune system. Prepare for the Season Ahead: Flu season is around the corner. Ask your provider about vaccinations, immune support, and ways to stay healthy through the fall. Revisit Your Goals: With just a few months left in 2026, what healthy habit do you want to finish the year strong with? At our office, we’re here to help you take control of your health, whether it’s through preventive care, wellness visits, or services like weight management and hormone therapy. The end […]
