We are proud to announce that we have achieved Level 3 recognition from the National Center for Quality Assurance, the highest level of recognition for Patient-Centered Medical Home.
We are very Proud of the work we are doing and look forward to providing excellence in healthcare going forward!

The patient-centered medical home is a way of organizing primary care that emphasizes care coordination and communication to transform primary care into "what patients want it to be." Medical homes can lead to higher quality and lower costs, and can improve patients’ and providers’ experience of care.

NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Recognition is the most widely-used way to transform primary care practices into medical homes.
