EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of healthcare in New Mexico. Taken by renowned photographer John Collier in 1943, it showcases Dr. Werner Onstine diligently examining a patient at a clinic operated by the Taos County Cooperative Health Association near Questa. The image exudes an air of professionalism and compassion as Dr. Onstine attentively listens to his patient's concerns with his stethoscope draped around his neck. The mid-century medical office setting is simple yet functional, reflecting the limited resources available during that time period. As one gazes at this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that this scene represents more than just a routine examination; it symbolizes the tireless efforts made by dedicated medical professionals to provide accessible healthcare services to underserved communities. The unidentified man being examined serves as a reminder of the countless individuals who relied on these clinics for their wellbeing. This photograph not only documents an important moment in public health history but also highlights the crucial role played by cooperative health associations like Taos County Cooperative Health Association in improving community well-being. Preserved and brought to life through Granger Art on Demand, this print serves as a powerful testament to both the progress made in healthcare over decades and the ongoing need for equitable access to quality medical care for all individuals across America.
