Same-day appointments
The Family Medicine team can often provide same-day appointments. It is a good idea to call first thing in the morning as there are limited same-day slots available. To receive family medicine care, please visit us at the Powell Valley Clinic.
Your partners in healthcare
Our board-certified physicians have completed residencies in family practice medicine. They’re supported by skilled physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and other caring and highly competent providers. Together they form a team who works with you to address your health concerns.

Should your condition require an additional level of care, we can refer you to a specialist or a resource such as diabetes education.
Why might you need a primary care provider?
It is important to establish care with a Primary Care Provider who tracks your health and wellness throughout your lifespan. Primary Care Providers play a key role in being the “gatekeeper” of your healthcare. They help to facilitate and monitor your healthcare over the years and when/if the need arises, they help facilitate testing and specialty referrals as you need them. They are vital when you or your family has an acute illness and knowing your background of healthcare to make collaborative and educated medical decisions with you.
