Primary Care Is Our First Line of Defense

Whether you require a family physician, an internist, or a nurse practitioner, primary care providers are often the first contact that we have with the healthcare system. We diagnose and treat common illnesses while also spotting minor health problems before they become serious ones.

We offer preventive care services, such as flu shots, cancer screening, and counseling on diet and smoking. We play an integral role in helping to manage the care of patients with chronic health conditions.

When people don’t have access to a regular primary care provider, they end up being admitted to hospitals and emergency rooms more frequently. Without regular screening, a controllable condition like high cholesterol – which often can be kept in check with common medications – can eventually lead to a life-threatening heart attack.

The evidence shows that good access to primary care can help us live longer, feel better, and avoid disability. In areas of the country where there are more primary care providers per person, death rates for cancer, heart disease, and stroke are much lower. Healthcare costs are also lower when people have a primary care provider overseeing their care and coordinating all the tests, procedures, and follow-up care.

The population is rapidly growing while access to acute healthcare is steadily shrinking. The Medical Centre of Lehigh Acres specializes in treating minor diseases, illnesses, and injuries with a strong emphasis on quality healthcare and convenience.

Most uncomplicated medical issues can be easily dealt with in our non-emergent setting. Patients satisfaction will always be our # 1 priority and we strive to provide both outstanding patients service and quality medical care with short waiting times.

We are committed to bringing you better health and a better way of life by teaching you how to practice healthy lifestyle habits. Let our caring and compassionate healthcare professionals give you the care that you need to live a healthy, prosperous life.

We understand that many members in our community will benefit with the healthcare reform, providing healthcare insurance to your family at lower costs with the government tax credit subsidy.

However, there is a gap in coverage for individuals and families with very low income or without US legal documents.

Our commitment is to provide healthcare services at low costs to individuals that are not legible to obtain insurance coverage. We do not verify income or immigration status.

Self-pay patients are welcome and we continue to offer free-for-services at discounted rates.

Our community is in great need of an acute care facility that can efficiently address minor acute medical concerns and decongest its overcrowded emergency rooms.

The increasing demand for medical services has heightened emergency department crowding and lengthened waiting times for primary care appointments. At The Medical Centre of Lehigh Acres, we treat each and every patient with the respect and care that everyone deserves when they are ill or injured.
