"On a day-to-day basis, the medical team addresses the unique problems faced by those who have often had to go without adequate health care. They have met these challenges by creating innovative care strategies and by becoming leaders in the most pernicious health problems burdening our communities."


    

     

   


Primary medical services

Our health centers grapple with the most fundamental health problems besetting our communities. Almost one-third of our patients have some form of chronic illness, and the overwhelming numbers of these individuals have multiple disorders.

Our patients are offered comprehensive primary care medical services including physical exams, chronic disease management services, health maintenance support, vaccines, immunizations, incision/drainage of cysts, outpatient HIV testing and care, well-child care, CHDP exams, addiction medicine, screenings for anemia, lead, vision, hearing and tuberculosis. Services are offered in both English and Spanish.

Other special clinical initiatives include offsite services to populations with special barriers to care including seniors in skilled nursing facilities and the homeless; an organization-wide pursuit of solutions to management of diabetes, HIV and early cancer detection; and the development of collaborative responses to wide-ranging health threats such as MRSA.


Broadening access through specialty care

We have developed strong alliances with specialty care providers in all our communities, giving our patients the ability to have care for their unique health challenges. Current specialties include chiropractic, dermatology, nutrition education, gastrointestinal medicine, ophthalmology, orthopedics, pediatrics, podiatry, psychiatry and surgery.
