Our Mission

MediCenter is a Compassionate Primary Care Guided Medical Home that focuses on going after the cause of disease to help you become and stay independently healthy.

What does this mean and why is it important for you?

MediCenter is Compassionate: With all the changes in healthcare, many people feel that healthcare professionals have lost their ability to relate , connect with, and show compassion to the patient. At MediCenter, our providers don’t hide behind a computer screen while giving a personal exam. They don’t rush off so that they can finish their notes before the next patient. They aren’t afraid to take a little more time to listen to the patient’s needs. At MediCenter, you are our reason for being and when you walk through our door, you are stepping into your medical home where you can be surrounded by those that care for you and look after your wellbeing.

MediCenter is a Primary Care Guided Medical Home: All too often, you as patients receive fragmented healthcare. MediCenter is a medical home where your primary care provider will guide you as the patient all the way from point “A” to point “Z”, and then all the way back to point “A” again. Your primary care providers at MediCenter know and understand that when they send you off to see a specialist, it is still their responsibility to see that you get there and receive the care you need, and then to also follow up afterward. In this day and age, with all the chronic disease going rampant throughout our society, this is needed more than ever. Our primary care providers at the MediCenter will guide you throughout your whole medical experience and will hold your hand throughout the whole journey.

The specialists at MediCenter also work hand in hand with your primary care providers, often consulting with them on your customized healthplan. Most importantly, the specialists that work inside MediCenter are specialists vetted and screened by your primary care providers as specialists that we feel are most effective in helping you become independently healthy. That trust, communication, and coordination creates a center of excellence in healthcare on the Kenai Peninsula like never before!

MediCenter Focuses on Going After the Cause of Disease: The practitioners and staff at the MediCenter have a deep rooted belief and culture that it is not enough to put “bandaids” over symptoms of disease without attempting to search out and treat the root cause of the symptoms. Yes, we prescribe the necessesary medications and treatments to help alleviate symptoms, but we are just as interested in helping you as our patient be rid of the causes of these diseases. We take into account environmental causes, lifestyle, and nutrition as well with each of our patients.

MediCenter wants YOU INDEPENDENTLY HEALTHY: If you are a true professional in healthcare, you have to be interested in working yourself out of a job, Period! It is our complete mission and everything that we stand for to help each of you become and stay independently healthy. If you never needed to see us except for your annual wellness visit, we would be ecstatic! We see this generation in our society getting sicker and sicker and we will not rest until we have helped turn the tide of this threatening Chronic Disease Epidemic and help you and your loved ones become and stay indepently healthy!
