“I see this as an opportunity to be a doctor in a rural area that needed help and was looking for doctors like me,” said Dr. Kien Tran, Fairchild Medical Center Clinic s new Internal Medicine specialist. That’s why I m here.
Tran, 51, jumped at the chance to practice medicine in Yreka when he was recently offered the position. He started his duties in October after working for more than 20 years as a physician in Michigan.
Before his phone interview with the Siskiyou Daily News, Tran s staff said he would be running late because a patient needed extra time to discuss an issue they had. Tran said it was important to prioritize this patient and to thoroughly go over their concerns and ways to treat the issue.
