Healthcare
- PrimaryPlus offices offer a comprehensive list of services including family health, women’s health, dental, pharmacy, x-ray/ultrasound, minor emergency care, wellness/occupational medicine, counseling and more.
- PrimaryPlus is proud to be working towards becoming an accredited Patient Centered Medical Home for all of its locations. A Medical Home is where a team of healthcare professionals work together to provide a new expanded type of care to patients. Being part of a medical home feels like having an “old -fashioned” family doctor experience, but with a team of medical professionals using advanced knowledge and modern technology to provide the best possible care for you. The care in a medical home has a very personal approach.
- We are excited to offer our trademarked WeCare® program at most PrimaryPlus facilities utilizing a team of Medical Providers, Case Managers, Certified Diabetes Educators, Pharmacists, Dietitians and more to give a TEAM approach to chronic disease management.
