Medina Memorial now offering Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic
MEDINA – Orleans Community Health has announced the opening of a new Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic at Medina Memorial Hospital.
Leading this new initiative is Jill Klotzbach, family nurse practitioner, and a native of Western New York.
“Our team is extremely excited to welcome Jill and the ENT Clinic to Medina Memorial Hospital,” said Marc Shurtz, CEO/CIO of Orleans Community Health. “We’re continually trying to bring services to our area that are both lacking and needed in the community. Not only is this a valuable service, but the recent news of the clinic closing in Middleport makes it even more critical.”
Klotzbach brings a wealth of experience and expertise to her role, according to Scott Robinson, director of Marketing, Communication and Outreach at the hospital.
“She is going to be a huge asset to our team,” Robinson said.
Klotzbach began her nursing career at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, and has since practiced in Ohio and Texas before returning to her roots. Her diverse clinical background encompasses medical-surgical, dialysis, intensive care, long-term care, operating room, allergy and ENT services.
A graduate of Daemen College and St. John Fisher, she holds multiple certifications, including those from the National Certifying Board of Otorhinolaryngology and Head-Neck Nurses, the American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy and the Council of Occupational Hearing Conservation. She has also contributed her skills to the local community by providing hearing test screenings for various businesses and serving as an on-call nurse at Crossroads House in Batavia, where she provided compassionate end-of-life care.
“I am excited to return to Western New York and serve the communities that are close to my heart,” Klotzbach said. “My focus at the new ENT Clinic will be to offer high-quality care for all age groups, with an emphasis on ENT and allergy diagnosis.”
In her personal life, Klotzbach enjoys traveling, golf, swimming and pickleball. She also cherishes the time spent with family and friends, especially during trivia nights. She has one son who lives in Denver.
The new ENT Clinic at Orleans Community Health aims to address the growing needs of the community with specialized care and accessible services. Everyone is invited to experience the compassionate care Klotzbach and her dedicated team will provide.
