Marvel Blazek, ARNP

"I value my patients here at Adair County Health System." 

      My husband, Robert, is a member of the Cardinal IG team and a farmer.  I have 3 adult children, Tammy Riley, Mindy Webb, and Timothy Piearson who has just joined ACHS.  Like many of my patients, I also enjoy spending time with my 7 grandchildren, reading Christian books, and small group Bible studies.

     Originally from Greenfield, I earned my BSN from the University of Iowa in 1972 and MSN as a Family Nurse Practioner from Drake University in 1998. 

      I appreciate family practice and in particular, patient education.  I want patients to know that all of your questions and concerns have merit and need answered and all phone calls will be returned. 

      I welcome the diversity in patients I am privileged to serve, from the very young to the elderly.  I also encourage patient and family input in health care decisions. 

      I am qualified and confident to provide service to all patients, but not afraid to make referrals if necessary.  I am also willing to make home visits if needed.
