CANCER AFFECTS US ALL. It’s touched nearly every family in Central Kentucky in one way or another. If you’ve experienced a cancer diagnosis, you know that what you want, more than anything, is the best possible team to help fight back against this disease. That’s why Lexington Clinic and UK HealthCare’s Markey Cancer Center have joined forces. We’ve combined Lexington Clinic’s century of experience in forward-thinking, communitybased care with Markey’s nationally-ranked expertise and access to the very latest research and treatments. The result—Markey Cancer Center at Lexington Clinic—offers a level of knowledge and experience in treating cancer here in Kentucky that no one else can claim. For our patients and their families, it means more options. More treatments. More support. More ways to help you fight cancer—all without leaving the comfort of your community and the doctors and nurses you know and trust. Lexington Clinic and Markey Cancer Center have always shared a dedication to the health of Kentuckians. This is our home, and the people who live here are our friends, our neighbors, our family. We believe that no Kentuckian should have to leave the state to receive the worldclass care they deserve. With this collaboration, we’re uniting to provide the best cancer care— working together for you and for our shared community. Sincerely,
Dr. Mark Newman, Executive VP
Dr. Andrew Henderson,
for Health Affairs at UK HealthCare

Jennifer says the most rewarding part of being a bus operator is making a difference in a passenger’s day. She has built relationships with her riders and enjoys offering a smile and warm greeting when they board the bus. Jennifer knows those small moments can have a big impact. “We’re not just driving the bus.

New medical center coming to Hamburg
A few of our four-legged friends from Lexington Police Department visited Hamburg for the Holidays!
Baptist Health Lexington has announced plans for a new medical center in Hamburg that will be open by 2023. The center will span more than 100 acres at Polo Club Blvd near Man O’ War Blvd and I-75. In all, it will span across 129 acres. It is estimated to create between 600-700 new jobs for this area. The plans still have to be approved by the Urban County Planning Commission.
Future of Daylight Savings Time Kentucky is among a growing number of states with hopes to remain on Daylight Savings time (“summertime”) year-round. This would mean even during the winter months, there would be an extra hour of darkness in the morning and an extra hour of daylight in the evening. A bill with similar intent was pre-filed in Frankfort before the 2020 General Assembly’s Regular Session. Since then, it has gained bipartisan support, as well as equal support from legislators in the Eastern and Central time zones.
