Our family medicine, internal medicine and pediatric care providers offer convenient, patient-centered care that fits your busy schedule. From newborns to older adults, we focus on your overall health and well-being, not just a single problem or illness.

Primary care is your first stop for health care

The best way to stay healthy and well is to see a primary care physician for regular check-ups. That way, problems can be caught and treated early, often preventing chronic conditions and more expensive hospital care. You can count on us for:

  • Compassionate, patient-centered care
  • Shared decision making
  • Same day appointments
  • Expanded office hours
  • 24/7 provider access
  • Integrated behavioral health services

We are here to answer your health questions, provide preventive care, order tests, prescribe medications, help you manage chronic conditions and access specialty care when needed. In case of life-threatening emergency, such as loss of consciousness, chest pain, severe breathing problems, or major bleeding, call 911. Do not delay emergency care by calling our office.

Choose a primary care provider who is the best fit for you and your family.

  • Family medicine doctors provide general preventive and primary care services for people of all ages. They can provide care for you and your entire family.
  • Pediatricians are specially-trained in infant, child and adolescent health care. They diagnose and treat a wide range of health conditions that affect kids – from everyday illnesses to serious chronic conditions.
  • Internal medicine doctors (also called internists) provide advanced primary care services for adults. In addition to preventive and routine care, internists are specially trained to diagnose and manage chronic conditions of the internal organs.
  • Internal medicine-pediatrics providers (also called med-peds) offer expert primary care services for people of all ages. With specialized training in both pediatric care and adult internal medicine, med-peds often serve patients who are born with chronic conditions, or develop them during childhood.
  • Family nurse practitioners are registered nurses with specialized training to deliver care that is focused on the family. They diagnose illnesses, preform exams and prescribe medicine. They work in both primary and specialty care practices.

Our primary care practices are all certified as patient-centered medical homes (PCMH), a national symbol of quality that is earned by successfully passing a strict review process. This means that you can trust our practices to have the right staff, tools, systems and resources for your family. You can count on us for:

  • Compassionate, patient-centered care
  • Shared decision making
  • Same day appointments often available
  • Accepting new patients
  • 24-hour on-call provider coverage when the office is closed, including weekends and holidays
  • On-site licensed clinical social workers (LCSW) for behavioral health needs

Appointment Policy: If you are unable to make your appointment, 24-hour advance notice is appreciated whenever possible. This allows us to give that time to another patient needing care.
