Our services

If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

 

Our providers perform a variety of in-office services and procedures. These include but are not limited to:

  • Skin lesion removal and biopsy

Palouse Health Center is proud to offer on-site lab services.

With the support of our skilled phlebotomist and nursing staff, we can perform many in-house services such as rapid diagnostic tests.  Many specimens will be sent to an outside laboratory for processing, which means you will receive a separate statement of services from the outside office. 

Please ask the clinical staff member assisting you if you have any questions about where your specimens or tests will be sent.

Depending on the type of lab testing you will be getting done, it may be necessary for you to plan ahead to ensure that you are able to fast if necessary. Fasting for the purpose of a lab draw means that you do not eat or drink anything but water 12 hours prior to your blood draw. If you have concerns about this restriction please discuss in further detail with your healthcare provider.

If you received a statement from an outside office for lab or pathology services, here are some contact numbers if you have questions about your bill:

Teresa Tomaszewski

 

Philosophy of Care:

As PA-C's, the foundation of our practice is treating patients as more than individual symptoms. We view care as an entire connected system; mental, physical, and emotional states all matter. My goal has always been to be an empathetic and understanding provider. I want to know about you, not just to address chronic and acute conditions, but to create a working relationship that facilitates better health outcomes so you can continue to enjoy life to the fullest.

 

Why Family Medicine PA-C:

I chose Family Medicine because I want to help people lead healthy productive lives regardless of age, gender, or ailment. Our bodies are continuously changing throughout our lives. From prenatal development to advanced years, I have always wanted to be part of that change, helping in preventative care, routine checkups, and diagnosing illnesses and issues.

 

 Personal Interests:

My partner, our Great Pyrenees, and I are avid outdoor explorers in all seasons. We spend our time together hiking, backpacking, skiing (backcountry, alpine, and nordic), biking, kayaking, fishing, hunting, foraging, and gardening. If I am not in the clinic, odds are I am out-of-doors enjoying nature.

My unwavering commitment to compassion, inclusivity, and top-tier care ensures no one in the community is left behind. I specialize in skin health, from preventing skin cancer to providing diverse treatments. My mission is to empower, educate, and embrace diversity, dismantling barriers to access and fostering a healthier, more radiant community.

What do you want your patients to know going into an appointment?
I would want each of my patients to feel validated in their experience. I know if they’re in front of me it’s for a reason. I want to care for everyone and I would really hope that my patients know I am there to care for them.

Personal Interests:
My family, we love music. I studied music at the University of Idaho and was a singer before I was diagnosed with nodes on my vocal chords. Even though I wasn’t able to continue singing, I still love music and it’s something I love to do with my family.
