Services
Access Community Health Centers is unique. It is our mission to provide comprehensive, top-quality services for the underserved, including both comprehensive medical and dental care.
We are creating a standard of care in which families and individual patients can establish long-term relationships with their health care professionals. These relationships improve health and improve lives.
Medical Services
Prenatal Care
Prenatal Services at Access Community Health Centers are provided by our family practice physicians and the UW Health Nurse Midwives Group. Our services have an emphasis on health promotion, education and disease prevention. Our providers offer individualized care for women throughout pregnancy, labor, childbirth and postpartum. The UW Health Nurse Midwives provide delivery services at Meriter Hospital.
We understand that this time of joy also comes with some apprehension and many questions. That is why we offer our More Than Pregnant classes. These classes are designed to meet the individual needs of our patients. They answer questions about pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. More Than Pregnant classes are offered in convenient locations, throughout our community.
Pediatric Care
We provide comprehensive quality care aimed at promoting optimal wellness from birth to 18 years of age. Our services include health maintenance visits, sports and school physicals, patient education and care of sick children. As an added convenience, we offer same day visits for acutely ill children.
Adolescent Care
The Adolescent Health Program provides primary health care and dental care to teens and their families. We provide resources that adolescents need to make choices that keep them healthy. Medical services are available at Access Community Health Centers’ two clinic locations and dental services at our William T. Evjue Clinic. Health fairs and health education services are provided in community settings.
Adolescent Health Program staff specializes in understanding the issues that teens and their families can face. An initiative of Access Community Health Centers, the Adolescent Health Program brings together resources from the University of Wisconsin Department of Pediatrics, Madison Metropolitan School District and many other community resources. It is supported through a grant from the Wisconsin Partnership Fund for a Healthy Future.
Adult Care
Our medical staff partner with our patients to prevent illness. We believe that adults must receive the proper preventative health screening and treatments to help them stay healthy. This practice allows for early diagnosis and treatment of any health problems. Our staff work with other community health care providers to assure a continuum of health care services for patients and our physicians are able to admit patients to University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics and to St. Marys Medical Center.
Chronic Disease Care
Chronic disease care at Access Community Health Centers is designed to improve the health of our patients that suffer from long-term, ongoing illnesses. Our staff is dedicated to empowering patients with information and knowledge of their choices. Our clinical care utilizes the latest evidence-based practices. Our staff works with other community health care providers to assure a continuum of health care services for patients and physicians are able to admit patients to University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics and to St. Marys Medical Center.
Behavioral Health Care
The majority of mental health services are provided in the primary care setting. At Access Community Health Centers, we provide same-day mental health consultation to patients so that both medical and related behavioral issues can be addressed quickly and efficiently. The service aims to provide immediate assistance to both patients and their primary care providers on mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, and behavior change issues such as weight loss, troubleshooting problems with diet or exercise initiation, smoke cessation, or the myriad of other changes that can be difficult to make.
