At Mile Square Health Center, we provide healthcare services for patients at a variety of life stages, from childhood through adulthood. Our goal is to provide the highest quality healthcare for you and your entire family.
Much of what we do at Mile Square is primary care, or continuous, essential day-to-day healthcare for our patients. We treat acute conditions, such as broken bones and asthma attacks, in addition to chronic conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease. Our healthcare services address our patients’ physical, mental, and social health needs, as well as provide appropriate referrals when necessary.

We hope to see you and your family regularly so that we can work together to help promote healthy lifestyles and provide you with high-quality resources.
