Affordable Health Care in Little and Big Cottonwood Canyons areas!


Hey all!

Wanted to share a very important topic while visiting and playing in Little and Big Cottonwood Canyon areas, here in the Salt Lake City Area. Unfortunately, part of playing hard is paying the price when we yard sale it hard, Huck a cliff and land just slightly wrong, or catch an edge while bombing a run. That's right, the injuries that occur from our trying to show off to the rest skiers on the mountain, or trying to woo our significant others. It is inevitable that when you ski hard enough, you eat snow equally as hard. Now as professional ski bums most of us can't afford health insurance, because lets face it gear is far more important that our health! I am here to offer you light at the end of the tunnel. If you are hurt to the point of needing immediate hospitalization, by all means go. Though if you are able to hunt for a Doctor in the area we have a very low cost alternative from the most caring Doc's in the area. Dr. Kara Clapp, located about 12 miles from the ski areas, who is interested in only one thing, the well being of your health. She offers a no wait service, and the best part of the visit is she charges you by the minute that you are in her care. The average time spent in her clinic is 30 minutes @ 2.50 a minute. Obviously, depending on what you are being seen for and the severity of your injury this is subject to change, but she will leave no stone unturned. Moreover, if you call her from the slopes from the time you arrive at her office, she will be there waiting when you arrive. So, when planning your ski vacation, please have her information with you just in case. For all of her contact information please visit her at her website which is http://www.doctorkara.com/, and store her phone number in your cell phone. I know that she has been a life saver for me, and will follow up with you until she knows that you are getting better, or will give you referrals until she knows that you are in the best care possible. I must stress, if you require immediate attention by all means go to the hospital immediately. If not she is the most affordable health care in the Salt Lake City area. Also, if she feels that you need more attention that what she can give, she can get you into the closest hospital, with little to no wait. So my fellow powder hounds, from a twisted ankle to the common cold, this is the place to be! We here at Sawickied Ski Stash hope that you will not need her services, but it is always stellar to have a back up plan that will not break your bank account. Tell her Ryan Sawicki send you for a possible discount!

Don't forget that Doctor Kara also makes house calls. She will see you in your home, condo, hotel room, or at her office. Ski dorm rooms are probably not the best choice due to lack of privacy, but a short drive to the clinic and you will be well taken care of.
