In 1997 Claude Bergeron and Barbara Bergeron, two healthcare professionals with longstanding commitments to providing access to preventive and primary care to the underserved, wrote a grant application to the Health Resources and Services Administration to establish a community health center in Klamath Falls. Their application was funded and Klamath Health Partnership (KHP), a Federally Qualified Health Center, began operating as Klamath Open Door Family Practice Clinic.
In 1998, Klamath Open Door’s first home was on Washburn Way as West Occupational Care with just two medical providers. Later that same year, KOD moved to Town and Country Shopping Center.
Over the following years, KOD expanded to include nurse practitioners (1999), a dental facility (2000), and a mental health program (2001).
Then, after a successful capital campaign, KOD relocated to its current facilities on South Sixth Street in 2004 where x-ray services, an expanded dental clinic, and full administration building were added.
Today Klamath Health Partnership is the second largest medical provider in the Klamath Basin and beyond — Malin, Merrill, Bonanza, Bly, Beatty, Tulelake, Dorris, Macdoel, and Lake...view — offering residents access to culturally appropriate, high quality, and affordable primary and preventive health care from clinics with two locations in Klamath Falls and one in Chiloquin.
