St. Francois County Health Care Providers Join Mercy

FARMINGTON, Mo. - A trusted team of physicians, advanced practice providers and their staff, who have dedicated their careers to serving Farmington and the surrounding St. Francois County community, are joining Mercy. They will continue to provide excellent care and service in their existing clinics.

Clinics that will become part of the Mercy health system are Midwest Health Group, Midwest Orthopedic Group, Midwest Pain and Spine Center (including its primary care and chiropractic teams), Midwest Imaging Center, Convenient Care Farmington and Convenient Care Bonne Terre.

“Our focus has always been serving the Farmington community and providing patients the health care they need here without having to leave this community,” said Dr. Paul Moniz, a primary care physician who is joining Mercy from Midwest Health Group. “That matches up perfectly with Mercy, which was founded on and continues to serve the goal of providing care where it’s needed. Mercy will bring us resources and support to enhance the care we’re already providing.”

These clinics joined Mercy, effective Sept. 1:

• Mercy Clinic Primary Care – Farmington 555 W. Pine with Dr. Paul Moniz, Dr. Guy Roberts, and nurse practitioners Megan Bell, Zacharius Dane, Angelica Lappe and Fisher Wadlow

Mercy will host a ribbon cutting and blessing celebration at 9 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 12 at 555 W. Pine St. Patients and the community are invited to attend.

These new Mercy facilities are in addition to the six existing Mercy specialty clinics in Farmington:

“We’re thrilled to be growing our presence in Farmington and serving more of the community than ever before,” said Dan Eckenfels, Mercy Jefferson Communities president. “By teaming up with the Midwest group, we will be able to provide more coordinated care with a variety of specialists seeing patients in Farmington. That all starts with having a primary care team here who knows this community and understands the needs.”

Mercy will immediately make a significant investment with the installation of a new electronic health record system. Epic’s state-of-the-art software provides one health record available to all Mercy health care providers.
