The Desimone Levee on the Green River failed and is under repair. The hospital is above the flood zone and currently in no danger of flooding. We evacuated our Time Square and Kent Station Clinics and our Lind Avenue locations. Several locations are experiencing staffing issues due to severe traffic impacts. Impacted patients are being contacted to reschedule appointments. Please be safe, do not drive or walk through standing water, and call 9-1-1 if you need emergency evacuation assistance.

Provider Recognition Corner - October 2019
Daniel Brelsford, MD, Renton Highlands Clinic
August 2019 -- Provider of the Month
Congratulations to Dr. Daniel Brelsford, MD, Valley's August 2019 Provider of the Month. Daniel works at the Renton Highlands Clinic and is known for being positive and engaging. He supports clinic staff wherever help is needed, and even participates in clinic functions—especially the silly ones! Dr. Brelsford is loved by everyone, including his patients, who consistently send in kudos for how amazing he is. A patient recently commented "Daniel is an example of every good quality in a physician. He has great bedside manners, is knowledgeable, and he always listens to what I have to say giving his undivided attention. He's very practical, caring, and considerate in his suggestions for better health, both physical and mental."
