Starting January 1, 2020 the WMed Clinics has a new name — WMed Health — to describe the comprehensive, patient-centered primary care and specialty services that we provide. All services, locations, providers, and staff are the same. You will not notice any change other than our name which is shorter and easier to say.
With more than 330 providers, we are a teaching organization that offers a team approach to your care. Depending on the service that you need, your care team may include resident physicians who are seeking advanced training, experienced faculty physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, ancillary services staff, medical students, and other learners.
We provide care in multiple locations, including 1000 Oakland Drive, 1717 Shaffer Street, and 670 Mall Drive. In addition, our care teams see patients at the Family Heath Center at 117 W. Paterson Street in Kalamazoo and Grace Health at 181 West Emmett Street in Battle Creek. New this year, we opened the Positive Living Clinic in collaboration with Community AIDS Resource and Education Services (CARES) of Southwest Michigan.
