Family Medicine

The Department of Family Medicine at the University Of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System provides high quality, comprehensive healthcare for people of all ages - infants through adulthood. Our physicians and nurse practitioners are committed to providing culturally sensitive medical care, health maintenance and preventive services.

We provide comprehensive and continuous care to each member of your family regardless of gender, age or type of problem. As a leading academic medical center, our medical students and resident doctors have extensive contact with our patients. We believe the collaborative approach, patients working with us to decide on the best type of care based on individual needs, is the best approach.

We are here to provide you with a "medical home," taking the worry out of navigating through a complex system and doing it for you.

We recommend regular physical exams for your optimal health and well-being.

Students
Many preventative outpatient services are available to all students enrolled in class at UIC. When a student chooses CampusCare as their healthcare plan, Family Medicine providers offer comprehensive primary care services, as well as manage any necessary specialty care. Students who waive out of CampusCare should consult their health insurance policies to determine how to best manage their health care needs. Most insurance plans are recognized at the Family Medicine Center where we can offer you a "medical home" for complete primary needs. All students must present their student ID cards.
