Dr. Alan Melnick, Clark County Public Health Officer and CCMS board member, was interviewed in this February 24 article in The Columbian, “Melnick: Clark County near bottom of vaccine allocation in Washington,” by Wyatt Stayner.

Dr. Melnick appeared in a follow up article, “Clark County providers to receive thousands of vaccine doses by next week,” also by Wyatt Stayner.

CCMS recommends you refer eligible patients to the Clark County Public Health website, which provides a list of ways people can identify where to get vaccine, including a link to the DOH locator: https://clark.wa.gov/public-health/covid-19-vaccine.

The mission of the Clark County Medical Society is to improve the health and quality of life for Clark County residents by supporting the professional, social, and legislative priorities of Clark County physicians. We are a member-driven association which represents the interests of physicians, physician assistants, and the patients whom we treat here in Clark County. We are your advocates in Olympia both in the legislature and the regulatory arenas.

The Clark County Medical Society Board understands what a challenge- both personally and professionally- the past few years has been. We are listening to your concerns and want to be an invaluable resource for ALL healthcare providers in Clark County. This year, we offer you a membership of $50.00 for MD and DOs and$20.00 for PAs. Join us and see what we are about!
