Six Questions with Dr. Randolph Reister

Dr. Randolph Reister is a baseball fan. And a strong advocate for his patients: “I believe the needs of the patient are the only needs to be considered.”

First job? I mowed lawns in the little town where I grew up. I mowed about 20 people’s lawns and played baseball, and that was my summer.

Free time? I like to run, and play with my kids, and I’m a huge baseball fan. I used to be a player, but now I just watch.

Best part of your work? Seeing people get better.

Health Screenings for Women

FEBRUARY 2023 – It’s a good time of year to make sure you’re up to date on your health screenings.

Recommended screenings for women:

New Year's baby of 2023: Zeke Elliot Chalmers

It’s a boy! Zeke Elliot Chalmers is our New Year’s baby – born on January 1 at 7:37 p.m.

Congratulations to parents Amber Riley and Zach Chalmers (and big brother Axel), who live in Owatonna.

Amber and Zach calculated Zeke’s due date as December 31. “Then at our first pre-natal appointment, we were told January 15,” Zach says. “We kept joking about it,” Amber laughs. “He’s the one who knew when to come.”

Axel, who’s almost 3, is excited to be a big brother: “He says he’s going to help change diapers and feed him,” Amber says.

Recognizing a fever in older adults

Average normal body temperatures in older adults are slightly lower than in younger adults. So when an older adult is sick, their fever temperatures may also be lower.

These temperatures in older adults may be signs of an infection, such as COVID-19 or the flu:

Protecting babies and toddlers from RSV: Advice from pediatrician Ben Flannery, MD

NOVEMBER 22, 2022 – RSV is hitting our communities hard right now. RSV is a virus that infects the lungs. Kids under 2 are most at risk of serious illness.

NH+C pediatrician Ben Flannery, MD explains:

“RSV infects the microscopic airways of the lungs. It’s especially hard on small lungs: Babies and kids under 2 are at risk of severe inflammation of the lungs, so it’s hard to breathe. They can’t cough the mucus out of their lungs, which can lead to pneumonia.

Six reasons you should get a COVID booster this fall

OCTOBER 25, 2022 – Bivalent boosters work twice as hard against COVID. “Bivalent” means the vaccine contains two antigens – one from the original strain of coronavirus, and one from Omicron variants. (An “antigen” is a substance that causes your immune system to produce antibodies against a virus.)

Bivalent boosters began on Sept. 2. Any booster you had before then was not the new formulation designed to fight Omicron variants.

NH+C has bivalent boosters available for everyone age 5 and older.
