Medicine
North Sound Family Medicine is part of Family Care Network, a locally owned and operated group of clinics. We are passionate about optimum health and wellness for our community. We work with our patients and our team to build strong relationships, creating a rewarding and positive healthcare experience.
Our team of health care professionals is committed to creating and maintaining a caring health service environment for our patients and our community.
Our services include full-spectrum family medicine, gynecology, newborn care, pediatrics (children’s care), and minor office surgical procedures such as suturing of lacerations, casting fractures, vasectomies, and circumcisions. We also assist in surgery. Counseling and guidance through all times of complex health care is always provided. Several of our physicians provide prenatal and obstetric care for expectant mothers.
