Morrison Community Hospital is deeply grateful for the generosity and lasting legacy of longtime, Family Physician Dr. Richard Vandermyde.
We were proud to dedicate our new Family Care Clinic in Dr. Vandermyde’s honor. It is a fitting tribute to a Physician who cared for generations of families in our community. Dr. Vandermyde not only delivered many of the patients who now receive care at the Family Care Clinic, but he generously donated a substantial portion of his estate to help make this clinic a reality.
We were honored to welcome members of Dr. Vandermyde’s family for the dedication.

Morrison Community Hospital CEO Pam Pfister accepted the generous donation on behalf of the hospital. She joined Mark, Bill, and Scott in honoring their father’s remarkable legacy.
We are incredibly grateful to the entire Vandermyde family for their generosity and for helping ensure that Dr. Vandermyde’s commitment to caring for our community will continue for generations to come.
On behalf of the staff of Morrison Community Hospital and the many patients whose lives Dr. Vandermyde touched, we thank you!
His legacy lives on in the care provided every day at the Morrison Community Hospital Family Care Clinic.
