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 Midtown Health Center, board-certified physicians, Andrew Zidow, MD and Grant Reed, DO, alongside Debbie Herz, RN, FNP-BC, all provide primary care. Request an appointment today with one of these providers by calling (815) 223-6843.
