Warner Hospital CEO: Flu Bad Locally, Not As Bad As Other Areas

If you get the flu and pay a visit to the Warner Hospital and Health Services Family Medicine Walk In Clinic, chances are you're not going to have to wait nearly as long to see a doctor as you would in other parts of central Illinois.
 
CEO Paul Skowron indicates the flu has been pretty rough in Clinton and DeWitt County but not nearly as bad as other parts of the state and even the country, where schools are canceling because of the outbreak.
 
 
Skowron indicates the hospital anticipated the flu season to be busy, however, it has not been nearly as bad locally. He adds, the patient experience locally has been night and day different compared to other healthcare providers.
 
 
Skowron indicates it is still not too late to get your flu shot, in fact, that is one of the things you can get done at their Family Medicine Walk In Clinic.
