Barhorst

On September 26, Oncology and Hematology Care (OHC) welcomed 85th State District Representative Tim Barhorst and 28th State District Representative Candidate Jenn Giroux for a tour of their Eastgate Medical Center. Dr. Randy Drosick led Rep. Barhorst and candidate Jenn Giroux on a tour of the practice, discussing the value of community oncology in offering high-quality patient care in a lower-cost setting.

State Representative Tim Barhorst is currently serving his first term as State Representative for the 85th Ohio House District, which includes Shelby and Champaign Counties and the southern portion of Logan County. Jenn Giroux is running for Ohio State Representative in the 28th District. Jenn has been a Registered Nurse (RN) for 39 years and worked in medical specialties that include infectious disease, medical-surgical Care, LDRP (labor, delivery, recovery, post-partum), same-day surgery/pre-admission testing, geriatrics, medical coding and home health/end of life care.

The US Oncology Network and OHC look forward to working with Rep. Tim Barhorst and prospective candidate Jenn Giroux on issues impacting community oncology for patients in Ohio.
