CLARKS SUMMIT — Doctors, residents and staff from The Wright Center for Primary Care’s Clarks Summit practice visited patients on Friday, Dec. 18, spreading holiday cheer, singing songs of the season and passing out dozens of cookies to those who gathered to hear the group sing. Along with caroling, and in lieu of purchasing holiday gifts for each other, the team at the Clarks Summit practice pooled their funds and purchased gift cards for four of their patients.
