Subject: Important Notice: Transition of Pediatric Endocrinology Care
Dear Patient,
We regret to inform you that Dr. Cydney Fenton, who has been providing your pediatric endocrinology care, has resigned from our practice effective immediately. We understand the importance of continuity in your healthcare and want to ensure you receive the necessary support during this transition period.
Due to our clinic specialty being primarily family medicine, we are unable to provide specialized pediatric endocrinology care within our practice. Therefore, it is crucial for you to immediately seek care from another healthcare provider who specializes in pediatric endocrinology.
To assist you in finding a new provider, we have compiled a list of reputable healthcare professionals in the field of pediatric endocrinology in our area. Below are their contact details:
Providence Medical Group Pediatric Subspecialty Clinic
3831 Piper Street, Suite S220, Anchorage, AK, 99508

Identity Health Clinic – Only for Gender Affirming Care Patients
307 E. Northern Lights Blvd Suite 101, Anchorage, AK 99503
(907) 865-3247
If IPMS is the patient’s primary care provider, please reach out to us for next steps. For all other patients, we encourage you to contact your primary care provider’s office to request an urgent referral be sent to establish care at a new specialty clinic for continuity of care. We recommend discussing with them the transfer of your medical records from our practice to facilitate a seamless transition. You may also contact your insurance company for a list of in network Pediatric Endocrinology providers.
Please be rest assured that IPMS remains available to provide medical services in the areas of general family health care. Dr. Cydney Fenton and IPMS will attempt to assist with the transition of care over the next 30 days, such as any urgent prescription refills.
If you have any other questions or concerns regarding this transition, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to assist and support you and ensure your healthcare needs are met during this transition period.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate the trust you have placed in us for your medical care.
