A Medical Home
The medical home, also known as the patient-centered medical home (PCMH), is a team-based health care system led by a health care provider that is intended to provide comprehensive and continuous medical care to patients with the goal of obtaining maximized health outcomes. It is an approach to providing comprehensive primary care for children, youth and adults and is intended to allow better access to health care, increase satisfaction with care, and improve health. Care coordination is essential and requires additional resources such as health information technology and appropriately-trained staff to provide coordinated care through team-based models.
Individualized Care
We offer individualized care whether asthma, ADHD, depression or complicated medical care. We have providers who can help you.
Behavioral Health
Integrated Behavioral Health services are an important part of the care we offer our patients. Because we know that emotional/behavioral issues affect a patient’s physical health, behavioral health clinicians participate in the medical visit to help address those needs in a team-based approach.

Remote Patient Monitoring Services
- Patients receive a smart blood pressure device, glucose monitor, or weight scale in the mail at no cost when covered by Medicare.
- Patients take a few readings each week.
- The device will send these readings to the doctor and is monitored weekly.
- If a reading needs attention, patients will receive a call from a health care professional in their doctor’s office.
- The patient will then answer questions to help the doctor understand if there is a health issue present.
- Each month the patient will get a call from a health care professional in the doctor’s office to teach them about care plans.
