New Leaf Center began with the vision of one doctor and purposeful visits of Dr. Olivia Wenger to the community to care for the children. The clinic began seeing patients in early 2013.  By 2016, the need for a full-time executive director was recognized. The clinic has continued to grow and today New Leaf Center has 2 full time pediatricians, 4 nurses, a registered dietician and several other members on staff.    

As growth at the clinic continues so does the work to provide compassionate care for all of the families we meet.  We have grown to understand that some families will visit the clinic one time while others will visit more frequently.       

The clinic staff and board will remain focused on the core fundamentals.  These clinical principles include identifying rare disease and continuing to seek knowledge about diagnosis and the understanding and treatment of rare conditions found in the community.  The clinic employs physicians that are eager to provide knowledgeable and relevant care, ensuring a trusting relationship with families. 

The clinic’s self-pay model aims to provide medical care at costs that will not burden the community because of the lack of health insurance coverage.  Our patients can be assured that our physician’s familiarity with genetic conditions in the community will impact and greatly reduce the burden of cost, both for families of children with inherited conditions and the surrounding community.
