<h3 style="text-align: left;">1) Fulfilling – Make a Difference</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When you choose a career in health care you are spending each
day helping people in one way or another.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Having the skills and heart to make a difference in the lives of others
goes further than your job.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It uplifts
families and the community, directly and indirectly, through the overall
improvement of health in the individuals you care for and the community as a whole.<o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PH9Kec3xC-8/YVctKvK2LKI/AAAAAAACc9I/k5DIEiX8ErglJd31GCqpOi8fTC7LKkq8ACLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1133220053.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PH9Kec3xC-8/YVctKvK2LKI/AAAAAAACc9I/k5DIEiX8ErglJd31GCqpOi8fTC7LKkq8ACLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_1133220053.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">2) Job Security – Always In-Demand</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The need for health care will never go away, and as the Baby
Boomer population ages, the needs are already increasing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That being said, the skills you develop in
your career in health care will always be in demand.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B3tORS0jvOU/YVct_qhJ-aI/AAAAAAACc9c/mjKw8fyW83s5mFK7-2yUiphyKT25tRa3QCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1133218364.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B3tORS0jvOU/YVct_qhJ-aI/AAAAAAACc9c/mjKw8fyW83s5mFK7-2yUiphyKT25tRa3QCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_1133218364.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">3) Flexibility – Find Work Anywhere</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Health care is a 24/7 all-encompassing field and there are
numerous positions and types of work available.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Keep in mind health care includes mental and behavioral health as well
as dental services.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is a need for
people with all levels of education and skillsets, with lots of options for
upward mobility. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is also demand for
health care workers nationwide, which creates an opportunity to travel for
work and find jobs in any state.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">4) Earning Potential – Above Average<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span></h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Most health care jobs provide wages that are above average.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is especially true with the high demand
for health care workers right now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In
some areas, a job in health care can be the most readily available professional-level
job attainable, and your options could be wide open as far as the type of work
you want to do.</p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZEL95DJEQoc/YVctYA5Tl4I/AAAAAAACc9M/p6b9wqkXlSEMjuNJbETTAJ28XcEE57e-ACLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1641431005.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZEL95DJEQoc/YVctYA5Tl4I/AAAAAAACc9M/p6b9wqkXlSEMjuNJbETTAJ28XcEE57e-ACLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_1641431005.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">5) Choices – Jobs of All Kinds</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When people think about a career in health care, the first job
that comes to mind is nursing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But a
career in health care can be many different things. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As mentioned, it also covers mental, dental, and
medical health. Working in health care may mean working with kids, working with
the elderly, helping people prepare for surgery, working in intensive care, or
it may be clerical work or cleaning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No
matter what your skillset, there is something in the health care field that
you would be perfect at.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">6) Variety – Every Day is Different</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No two days are the same in health care.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is always something new, and you are
usually looking to solve a problem or help a situation in some way at any given
moment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will get to employ your
critical thinking skills and problem-solving abilities on a constant basis and
be able to learn and teach as you do.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nevTuoETj4Q/YVct0jscTYI/AAAAAAACc9Y/XKDAJAVO2f8WaS4OLN-xk5Ky6Lijpi58ACLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_230015074.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nevTuoETj4Q/YVct0jscTYI/AAAAAAACc9Y/XKDAJAVO2f8WaS4OLN-xk5Ky6Lijpi58ACLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_230015074.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>

and government programs that will help pay for your education in health care. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because of increasing demands in health care
and ever-changing technologies, incentives have been created to encourage employees

the right <a href="http://www.centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">OB at the Lake of the Ozarks</a> is very important. You want one that suits your unique needs and
one in which you feel confident and can relate to easily. Our <a href="http://www.centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">health clinics at the Lake of the Ozarks</a>
are here to provide a variety of medical services including OB or Obstetrics
services, and we thought we would share 5 things to consider when choosing an
OB in this week’s blog.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KFfOucceW_4/YUSBgncLbhI/AAAAAAACcog/P4J3lKqo574FfE0EDYa-B85sL7mW3qJnwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1669982455.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KFfOucceW_4/YUSBgncLbhI/AAAAAAACcog/P4J3lKqo574FfE0EDYa-B85sL7mW3qJnwCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_1669982455.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">1) Insurance</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cost can be top of mind when it comes to any medical
care.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At <a href="http://www.centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center</a> we never want lack of insurance to prevent people from accessing
quality medical care.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We will accept patients
with and without insurance and use a sliding fee scale based on family size and
income.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">2) Experience</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Doctors can have a range of experience from those just
starting their careers to highly skilled doctors with decades of experience, and
everything in between.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is perfectly
appropriate and important for you to know how long an OB had been practicing
when searching for a new one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After all,
this is the person who will be guiding you through your entire pregnancy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His or her level of expertise matters.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ez684EPvexQ/YUSBoUVsP7I/AAAAAAACcok/an97roUUgfA65KNPqPN-S1yl6Z_ibt9rACLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_249370948.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ez684EPvexQ/YUSBoUVsP7I/AAAAAAACcok/an97roUUgfA65KNPqPN-S1yl6Z_ibt9rACLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_249370948.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">3) Availability</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Availability can be a big deal, especially for anyone
experiencing their first pregnancy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
is hard to think of everything you might want to ask during your office
visits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Besides, questions will pop up
along the way and you will want to know you have access to your OB to have those
questions answered. So, it is a good idea to ask if the doctor is available and
easy to reach by phone and more specifically when, and how often can he or she
be reached.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">4) Proximity</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the OB within a reasonable distance for you to drive on a
regular basis?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will have very
frequent doctor’s appointments during your pregnancy and after the birth of
your newborn.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So, it is a good idea to
consider how close the OB is to where you live, especially since you will be driving
in every season to get there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-k5UFsOLzPNQ/YUSBvOmwlBI/AAAAAAACcoo/ekpwnHvHVQUH6vrszWGi-hbHV9qQKfP8QCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_504075412.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-k5UFsOLzPNQ/YUSBvOmwlBI/AAAAAAACcoo/ekpwnHvHVQUH6vrszWGi-hbHV9qQKfP8QCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h266/shutterstock_504075412.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">5) Flexibility.</h3><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many people work weekdays and need the convenience of not
having to take off work for every appointment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But will your OB accept appointments on weekends or outside of business
hours?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How long does it usually take to
get an appointment? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Taking time off for
every single appointment can really add up, and you may want to save as much
time off as you can for after the baby is born.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Asking about this up front may help determine which is the best <a href="http://www.centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">OB at the Lake of the Ozarks</a> for you.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The right OB can make all the difference in how comfortable and
confident you are through your pregnancy and delivery.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At <a href="http://www.centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center</a>, our
providers know how important the birth of your baby is and what an exciting
(and sometimes stressful) time it is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our
providers and incredible staff are dedicated to making the whole experience positive
by keeping you informed, answering all of your questions, and being partners in
the process.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Ultimately, our goal is not only to guide you through your
pregnancy and delivery, but to see to the continued good health of you and your
baby.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are very proud to provide the
best in patient care because we truly believe it is not just what we do, but
how we do it, that matters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Call the
clinic nearest you to schedule an appointment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

Drain the pasta and set it aside.</p><p>While the pasta is cooking, combine the olive oil, tomatoes and salt in a large, non-reactive skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Cover the skillet (use a baking sheet if you don’t have a better lid). Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the tomatoes have started to burst out of their skins and the olive oil has a light red hue (about 6 to 12 minutes).</p><p>Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the cooked pasta. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes while you chop the basil. We don’t want the cheese to melt on contact, so wait to proceed to the next step until your pasta is lightly warm (not hot).</p><p>Stir the mozzarella balls and basil into the pasta. Add the vinegar, then taste and add additional vinegar and/or salt, if it doesn’t quite taste spectacular yet. For best flavor, let the mixture rest for about 20 minutes, so the pasta can absorb some of the sauce. Or, refrigerate it for future use.</p><p>This salad will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Leftovers are great chilled or at room temperature. You can also reheat the pasta if you don’t mind the mozzarella melting (yum).</p><p><br /></p><p>All of us here at <b><a href="https://centralozarks.org/" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center</a></b> hope that you enjoyed seeing these healthy recipes.

It's never too late to start focusing on proper oral hygiene and good oral care routines for your kiddos. A child's mouth goes through many changes between birth and adolescence. Here at <a href="http://centralozarks.org" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center,</a> we strive to set your child up for success by establishing good oral care routines at a young age. Our <a href="https://centralozarks.org/services-2/#Dental" target="_blank">dentist in Richland, MO</a> is here with some quick tips on how you can put an emphasis on proper oral care for your children. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9kBOe9RmuVI/YO8XE-K43SI/AAAAAAACbQ4/MbwXycssC08-3rFP5psoUaM6a6V2HU3aQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1023801760.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="669" data-original-width="1000" height="428" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9kBOe9RmuVI/YO8XE-K43SI/AAAAAAACbQ4/MbwXycssC08-3rFP5psoUaM6a6V2HU3aQCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h428/shutterstock_1023801760.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Brush Twice a Day</h3><p>It's important that your children brush their teeth twice each day. Once in the morning and again before bed. This helps remove any plaque or food buildup that forms on the teeth throughout the day and night. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Floss Daily</h3><p>Plaque quickly builds up between teeth causing decay of the tooth enamel. Once the tooth enamel has been penetrated, tooth decay can cause pain and tooth damage to your child's teeth. This is why flossing once each day is so important for proper oral care. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Be Conscious About Nutrition</h3><p>Teach your child about the importance of proper nutrition, not only for their overall health but their oral health, as well. Foods that are high in sugar are a nice treat every now & then but should not be a part of their daily diet. Try to make healthy snacks and food options readily available for those summertime and after-school snack sessions!</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Replace Toothbrush on a Regular Basis</h3><p>Toothbrush bristles wear out over time. It's recommended to replace your child's toothbrush every three months. It's important that the toothbrush your child uses has new bristles so it cleans with the best efficiency. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Avoid Sticky Foods</h3><p>Sticky foods and candy can cause damage to your child's teeth. Sugary candy tends to stick to the tooth surface longer than other foods, where it mixes with the saliva and causes bacteria and plaque to build up. Try to reduce the amount of sticky food that your child consumes. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Schedule a Dental Check-Up</h3><p>Routine check-ups with a dentist are important to monitor oral health. It's advised to have your child visit the dentist every 6-months. Your dental provider will also help teach your child and reinforce positive oral routines. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Make it FUN!</h3><p>The most important step in establishing good oral health care routines is to make it fun! Sing a silly song while your child brushes their teeth, get your child excited to floss, make a fun game out of eating healthy snacks, and create a positive vibe around visiting the dentist. These are all great ways to make your child's oral care routine more fun and something they look forward to doing!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-77Eod4dhF0Y/YO8XutWYfaI/AAAAAAACbRE/wZzg-MvY1TwsvHWibaVoDzHkKaz0x3IwwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/shutterstock_1290948973.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-77Eod4dhF0Y/YO8XutWYfaI/AAAAAAACbRE/wZzg-MvY1TwsvHWibaVoDzHkKaz0x3IwwCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/shutterstock_1290948973.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p>Now is the right time to put an emphasis on proper oral hygiene for your children.

You can process them more or less, depending on the texture you want. The more you do, they less obvious the carrot will be. 😉</p><p>Add the flour 1/4 cup at a time, pulsing in-between, just until you reach a dough consistency. You don’t want it to be too sticky, or too dry.</p><p>Lightly flour your work surface, roll the dough to 1/4 inch thick and cut to desired shapes. I just used a pizza cutter to cut long strips and then small 1 inch squares.</p><p>Put shapes on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Sprinkle with a little course sea salt (optional).</p><p>Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they are crispy and slightly brown on the edges.</p><p>Store leftovers in an airtight container.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XYNgB8ooW1g/YLp6KMx_vgI/AAAAAAACaYI/LEH9a8chyfci72bT0wCJrtZHf2W_QcxkgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/shutterstock_613639991.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XYNgB8ooW1g/YLp6KMx_vgI/AAAAAAACaYI/LEH9a8chyfci72bT0wCJrtZHf2W_QcxkgCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/shutterstock_613639991.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>Source: <a href="https://www.superhealthykids.com/recipes/quinoa-stuffed-mini-bell-nachos/">https://www.superhealthykids.com/recipes/quinoa-stuffed-mini-bell-nachos/</a></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;"><b>2.

Then stack them all together and cut into 8 triangles.</p><p>Arrange the triangles in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with foil. If they overlap, they won't crisp as well.</p><p>Sprinkle each triangle lightly with the cinnamon mixture. Flip them over and sprinkle the other side too.</p><p>Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through, and make sure you check the chips often so that they don't burn. They are finished when the edges get dry and crispy. The center will still be slightly flexible, but they will crisp even more as they cool.</p><p>Allow to cool slightly and test the texture. If they aren't quite crisp enough, return to the oven for 2-3 minutes.</p><p>Once they are mostly cool, remove from the pan and enjoy with your fresh salsa! Keep leftovers of salsa in the fridge and eat quickly, after about 24 hours the fruit will breakdown and get soupy. Keep leftover chips in a sealed ziplock bag.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Have A Happy, Healthy Summer!<br /><br /></h2><p>All of us here at <b><a href="http://centralozarks.org" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center</a></b> hope that you have a fun summer with your loved ones.

This is not meant to be a scare tactic, just simply a tip. Protect your children from harmful sun rays when possible. Make sure your kids have sunscreen on before they go outside, 15 SPF or higher. Sunhats, sunglasses, and lightweight clothing that covers the skin aren't bad ideas either.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>BE ALERT AT ALL TIMES.</b></p><p>Do your kids LOVE to swim? Do they love to be active and run around outside? If so, GREAT, those are both good forms of fun exercise. However, don't take your eyes off of them while doing activities like this. Put your cell phones down and if you're going to talk to other parents, do so in a way where you can still watch your kids. It only takes seconds for an accident to occur. Again, this is meant to be a scare tactic, just a helpful tip. Be present with your children this summer.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>INVEST IN BUG SPRAY.</b></p><p>Be sure to check your kids for ticks this summer. They are so thick right now! If your child gets stung by an insect of some kind, monitor them for allergic reactions. If they do appear to have some sort of medical reaction be sure to take them to a doctor right away. When you spray your children with bug spray, keep it out of their eyes and re apply it idf happens to get washed off if they go swimming.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>PREPARE HEALTHY SNACKS FOR ON-THE-GO AHEAD OF TIME.</b></p><p>A busy summer does NOT have to mean drive-thru food all the time.

Then, there are doctors who are somewhere in the middle. This is important to know. This person is supposed to your guide throughout your entire pregnancy, so don't be afraid to ask about it when searching for a new OB.<br /><br /></p><p><b>HOW OFTEN WILL THIS OB BE AVAILABLE TO YOU?</b></p><p>When you are pregnant, it is likely that you will have many questions along the way, especially if this is your first pregnancy. You may not always think to ask these questions during your appointments so ask if the doctor is available for phone calls and how often that may be.<br /><br /></p><p><b>HOW FLEXIBLE IS THE OB WITH APPOINTMENT SCHEDULING?</b></p><p>Ask about how long you have to book an appointment ahead of time and what their hours of operation are. Are they open on Saturdays ever or no weekends at all?<br /><br /></p><p><b>WILL THE OB TAKE YOUR INSURANCE?</b></p><p>Here at Central Ozarks Medical Center, we accept patients with and without insurance and offer a sliding fee scale based on income and family size.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Obstetrics Services at Central Ozarks Medical Center</b></p><p>Knowledge and preparation are key to enjoying pregnancy. Our OB providers know that every birth is special and are honored that you have chosen them to guide you during your pregnancy and prenatal care. Their ultimate goal is for your continued good health and the delivery of a healthy newborn. COMC providers as well as their amazing staff of nurses will work to keep you informed and answer all of your questions from pregnancy confirmation to your post-partum check-up.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FxZgKpebKBo/YIxEsTy6gGI/AAAAAAACYIM/mm6T4zBXbO098mwWKMXey-HlAPyUvVCnACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/shutterstock_657819421.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FxZgKpebKBo/YIxEsTy6gGI/AAAAAAACYIM/mm6T4zBXbO098mwWKMXey-HlAPyUvVCnACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/shutterstock_657819421.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Looking For A New <a href="http://www.CentralOzarks.org" target="_blank">OB at the Lake of the Ozarks</a>?<br /><br /></h2><p>If so, we encourage you to call <b><a href="http://www.CentralOzarks.org" target="_blank">Central Ozarks Medical Center</a></b>.
