Dr Joan's Healthcare Review

Newsletters on Healthcare by Dr. Joan
Joan MacEachen MD, MPH
I have worked as a Family Medicine physician with Indian Health Service for 37 years. I provided health care for the Southern Ute tribe in Ignacio, CO for 16 years, and for several Alaska and Arizona Native clinics and hospitals. I have also worked in Community Access clinics.
My Masters degree is in international public health and I worked in New Zealand for 6 years.
