Next up.. Martha Martha Martha😏


Martha is one of the first faces you will see when you enter the office.  She has been with EHS for 7 years and her title is Patient Care Coordinator.  Her tasks include:  scheduling, answering the phone, putting together daily charts and a multitude of other things to help keep the office running smoothly.  

She has been married to her husband, Rick, for 37 years.  She has 3 children, 4 grand children and 2 great-grandchildren.  She also has 4 golden retrievers who are all a special part of her family.  

Martha has kindly answered the questions that I have asked.. 
So here goes nothin' ..


  • What are some of your hobbies?..
           -   I love chunky rings and doing my nails a few times a week, nothing too fancy, just trying to keep it fun and spending time with our spoiled dogs.


  • What is your favorite part about working at EHS?..
             -  I enjoy greeting the patients, challenging myself to try to call everyone by name... I don't always get that right!  I really love the way we
        all interact, and are friends... It's nice to have awesome bosses and co-workers.


  • Do you have a favorite band?..
             -   I like contemporary Christian music and I also like Country Music... Garth Brooks, Reba, Vince Gill, Diamond Rio, Brooks & Dunn... I guess those are the "oldies".  


  • What is the best vacation that you have been on?.. 
            -  Best vacations... it's hard to list just one.  While we haven't been on many the stand outs were the two cruises in 2008 and 2010... What fun.
         Going to Colorado with my parents, siblings and their spouses for a week was a hoot, and I can't forget to mention a few trips
         to Florida with a great group of internet friends, and staying at one's beach house in St. Pete Beach!  

  • Last but not least... what is one thing that you cannot resist?..
             - I LOVE DARK CHOCOLATE!

 I hope everyone enjoyed getting to know a little bit more about Martha. I hope you all have a safe, enjoyable weekend.  Until the next time..

My contacts are poisonous? Not so fast.

       Recent media coverage has brought attention to a report claiming that 18 soft contact lenses from three major companies in the industry were found to contain PFAS or toxic "forever chemicals".  Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic chemicals used in a variety of consumer products for their ability to resist heat, stains, and water. They are referred to as "forever chemicals" because they break down very slowly and can accumulate in people, animals, and the environment over time.  This has prompted concern about potential long-term health effects - studies have shown that high levels of exposure to some PFAS may be linked to increased risk of cancer and other adverse health issues.      In contact lenses, PFAS are used to soften the material and enhance oxygen permeability.  So, you might be wondering, are my soft contact lenses safe to be wearing?     Currently, there is no scientific literature published to show harmful effects

  The Scary Truth About Costume Contact Lenses This Halloween you may have seen some spooky contact lenses. Costume contact lenses, also known as cosmetic or decorative contacts, are lenses that change how your eyes look by altering the eye’s color or pupil shape. Even though they may be advertised as cosmetic accessories, please keep in mind that  all  contact lenses are considered medical devices by the FDA – this means they require a prescription and proper fitting by an eye care professional, and proper care by the wearer. Purchasing contact lenses without a prescription is illegal in the United States. Only buy costume contacts from retailers who ask for a prescription and sell FDA-approved lenses – not from the gas station down the street, your nearest beauty salon or pop-up Halloween shop. Some cosmetic lenses have been found to be counterfeit or even re-packaged, which is not sterile and could contaminate your eye. Furthermore, one study found costume lenses that tested positiv
