LATEST CLINIC NEWS!
​
LFPC announces the upcoming retirement of Dr. Ishmael, who has served the Litchfield community with compassion and commitment since joining the practice in 2000. His last day in the office will be September 12, 2025.
Dr. Ishmael is retiring to spend more time with his family and will be moving closer to his grandchildren. While his presence will be deeply missed, we are excited for him as he begins this new chapter.
To ensure a smooth transition, Dr. Meagan Nowlan will be moving into Dr. Ishmael’s corner of the office and will work alongside his dedicated nurses, nurse practitioner Morgan, and physician assistant, Mindy, to provide continuity and exceptional care.
