RICA Family,

It is with a heavy heart that we must make this post to inform you of our providers current condition. The provider at the practice has experienced a medical emergency and is unavailable currently. We want you all to know she is undergoing the best possible treatment at this time and we ask for your patience as we navigate this difficult time in her life. We strive to provide you all with the best possible care, at the same time the provider needs this same care for herself to get her back to peak performance to care for your little ones. We understand the stress this may place on families and we ask for the same peace and love we strive to provide for you for our provider at this time. When she recovers we will do our best to backfill and see everyone who had existing appointments as soon as we are physically able. A sole provider practice creates strain on our resources as an office and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to you and your families. If you would like to send condolences and notes of recovery please drop them at the office or leave us a voicemail. She would be delighted to hear all the gratitude you have provided us over the years. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this difficult time and we hope to see you back at the office soon!

Honoring Our Heroes & Taking a Brief Recess!

Hey there, RICA family! 👋 Just a quick heads-up that our doors will be closed on Monday, May 25th in observance of Memorial Day. 🏖️

While we love filling our days with high-fives 🙌, band-aids 🩹, and watching your little ones grow, our team is taking this day to pause, rest, and reflect. 🕊️❤️

Memorial Day is so much more than just the unofficial start to summer and backyard BBQs 🌭🍉. It’s a special time for us to hold space for, and deeply honor, the brave families who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. 🎖️We are infinitely grateful for their strength and courage.
