Physical Therapist Shows Interest In Taking Over Groveland PT Clinic

Groveland, Ca — The Tuolumne County Board of Supervisors may have found someone to take over the Groveland Physical Therapy Clinic, which is set to close on December 31st.

The Board has received a letter from Physical Therapist Julie Tanaka, who recently purchased a home with her husband in the Pine Mountain Lake area.

?I would like to propose to the county that they extend their deadline for closure to March 31, 2009 to allow the establishment of the appropriate credentialing and insurance contracts to take over the clinic and maintain continuity of care and staffing,? writes Tanaka. ?I am happy to work with the county to establish communication on timelines and agreements as needed.?

Tanaka currently owns another PT clinic in Monterey area. The Board has decided to further discuss the matter at next week´s meeting.
