Editor,

I took my son to the new WhidbeyHealth walk-in clinic and was shocked to be turned away. My son is on the state-run insurance plan for kids, and the Clinton clinic does not accept any DSHS insurance plans.

I had wrongly assumed the walk-in clinic was a community clinic. Clearly it’s not if it won’t allow economic diversity, which does exist, even on our south end of the the island.
