White Cloud clinic adds physician and dentist 

WHITE CLOUD, Michigan – Christopher White, DDS, and Jack Norgren, DO, recently joined Family Health Care’s clinic in White Cloud.

Dr. White is a general dentist with nearly ten years of experience providing care to rural communities. He graduated from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry and completed his undergraduate studies at Michigan State University. 

“I bring enthusiasm to the dental clinic while helping patients achieve all of their dental needs,” said Dr. White. “I take pride in helping my patients achieve systemic health by working with the other service lines at Family Health Care to offer integrated care that treats the whole person.” 

Dr. Norgren is a family medicine physician who recently completed his residency at Chickasaw Nation Medical Center in Ada, Oklahoma. He earned his medical degree from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. 

“I am excited to join a team that is dedicated to providing health care that is affordable and accessible to everyone,” Dr. Norgren said. “I have a passion for rural medicine and serving communities that otherwise would not have the same opportunities for health care that larger communities have.”

Julie Tatko, CEO of Family Health Care, said adding Dr. White and Dr. Norgren will benefit Newaygo County.

“Newaygo County is a medically underserved community. By adding an additional dentist and a family medicine physician, we will be able to increase access to care,” said Tatko. “This includes medical and dental services to Medicaid patients or those with limited income and would benefit from our sliding fee scale, which provides services at a cost tailored to what they can afford.”
Tatko said Family Health Care is fortunate to have providers of Dr. White and Dr. Norgren’s caliber join their team.

Family Health Care is a Federally Qualified Health Center that provides medical, dental, vision, behavioral health, pharmacy, laboratory, and X-ray services.

Dr. White and Dr. Norgren are currently accepting new patients of all ages. To schedule an appointment, call (231) 689-5943.
