Lewis County’s new health officer is on the job. Dr. Joe Wiley, MD, is a pediatrician who worked at the Northwest Pediatric Center in Centralia for 27 years. He is on staff at
Providence-Swedish Centralia Hospital, where he’s worked since 2017.
“My goal is to protect the public health, to intervene and limit the spread of disease or illness,” said Dr. Wiley. “I want to be of service to the community, collaborating with health care
practitioners,” he said. “It’s crucial to have open communication and to receive feedback from providers and educators to be able to give sound advice.”
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to have a local health officer who has provided care to thousands of people in our community,” said Lewis County Commissioner Sean Swope. “He has
a great reputation, an advocate for our people and our way of life.”
