Interview with Lea Seefeldt by Susan Hamlin, RCMS Board Member

Lea Seefeldt has been with RCMS at the Pt. Arena Clinic for eighteen years! She is the person that runs and knows just about everything about that office, and we are so lucky to have her. Lea was drafted by Judy Seymore, the human resources person in 2007, when she had just returned to Gualala from living in Florida. Lea had been working as a property manager for two years but missed the Sonoma/Mendocino Coast. Originally Lea came to Annapolis in 1990 with her mom and brothers when she was fourteen years old when they relocated from Sonoma County. Lea earned her B.A. degree from Sonoma State.
 
Interestingly, Lea was a patient at RCMS as a teen. As a former adolescent patient, and as a long-time member of the Gualala/Point Arena community, Lea has an important and valuable perspective of our Clinic. She is very proud of the work we do and is proud to be a member of this team.
​
At the Pt. Arena Clinic, Lea is the Office lead and the Home Visit Coordinator. She works closely with patients and with Nurse Practitioner Lois Falk. She also does FNP Lois Falk referrals and she is extremely familiar with the doctors and their staff. Because she understands her referral sources and their process so well, Lea makes the referrals for our patients go that much more smoothly.
 
On her off time, Lea enjoys yoga, hiking and has recently begun paddle boarding. Being in the sun and spending time with friends very important to her – both for health and for pleasure.
 
Lea is one of the major point people at RCMS and we are so grateful for her wonderful work.
