 Primary Care

Your primary care provider (PCP), along with a healthy diet and exercise, is one of the greatest assets for your health. Primary care should be the first choice for most non-emergent health needs. No matter where you live, PCP’s fulfill the same important role for your health care.

Before you select the option of a walk-in clinic or urgent care, schedule a checkup with your primary care provider for non-urgent issues, regular checkups and school and sports physicals. We also offer DOT physicals and other Occupational Health Services for area businesses.

At the Center for Family Health in Princeton, board-certified physicians, Benjamin Shepherd, MD and Travis Swink, along with Jennifer Gutshall, PA-C all provide primary care. 

  • Get to know you and understand your concerns
  • Make referrals to any specialists you may need
  • Consult and coordinate your care
  • Make sure you get the appropriate follow up
  • Make it a priority to provide care as soon as possible

Family Medicine

Family medicine falls within primary care and as you might expect, involves comprehensive care for the whole family. A family provider sees patients of any age (from newborns to seniors alike). Our family physicians are dedicated to establishing long-term, trusted relationships with patients and their families. As a primary care provider, a family physician is often the first line of care a patient sees, providing a wide range of care, including:

  • Regular checkups
  • Well-baby checkups
  • Immunizations
  • Health Screenings and Risk Assessments
  • School & Sports Physicals
  • Preventative Care
  • Treatment of More Common Chronic Diseases
  • and More
