Chester, health, medicine

The Lake Almanor Clinic has announced the addition of a new gynecologist to its medical staff, enhancing women's healthcare services for residents of Chester and the surrounding Plumas County area.

Dr. Ainsley Van Reusen, the newly appointed gynecologist, expressed enthusiasm about joining the clinic and serving the local community.
