What is a medical home?
A “medical home” is a medical office or clinic where a team of health professionals work together to provide a new, expanded type of care to patients. Having a medical home gives you the familiar and comfortable relationship that you have with your family doctor, but also includes a coordinated team of other professionals behind the care that you receive. This team uses modern communication techniques to provide the best possible care for you in our office.
When you take an active role in your health and work closely with us, you can be sure that you’re getting the care that you need.
