Southwest Medical Center and Memorial Hospital of Texas County have announced plans for Southwest Medical Center to begin providing clinic services for OB/GYN patients in the Guymon community. Clinic services will begin on November 12, following the discontinuation of OB services by MHTC.

     Southwest Medical Center, a regional medical center in Liberal, Kansas, has coordinated with providers at the High Plains OB Clinic to offer care services at the 421 Medical Drive location. The new clinic name will be the Women’s Specialty Care Center of Guymon.

     Southwest Medical Center will be employing Dr. Nicholas Viyuoh and Megan Furnish, CNM, in order to keep quality care close to home for women and families living in the Oklahoma Panhandle. Patients will be able to continue seeing these community providers at their clinic appointments in Guymon. In addition to providing clinic services, arrangements are being made for Dr. Viyuoh to perform OB deliveries and surgical services at Southwest Medical Center in the near future.

     “As a regional medical center, we are here to provide comprehensive services and excellent care to our patients through all stages of their lives,” Southwest Medical Center President and CEO, Bill Ermann, said. “It has always been our mission as a county-owned hospital to be a good neighbor to communities in our area. We are privileged to work with Dr. Viyuoh, Megan Furnish, and the MHTC leadership team to continue providing essential services to the Guymon community.”

     Patients will be able to continue scheduling appointments with Dr. Viyuoh and Megan Furnish, CNM. Southwest Medical Center’s new Women’s Specialty Care Center of Guymon accepts new patients and most major insurances, including: Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Medicare, and Oklahoma and Kansas Medicaid. Appointments are available Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and Fridays from 8:30 a.m. to noon.
