School of Medicine Opens Patient-Centered Family Medicine Clinic

The University of Nevada School of Medicine’s Patient-Centered Family Medicine clinic is a new program for improving primary care for patients by focusing on organizing medical care around the patient, working in teams and coordinating and tracking care over time.

“Our primary goal is to give patients the best possible medical care by building a trusting partnership between you as an informed patient, our providers and the health care team. The center of the team is the patient,” said Daniel Spogen, M.D., chair of the School of Medicine’s Department of Family and Community Medicine, who initiated the Patient- Centered Family Medicine model.

This team approach involves physicians and nurse practitioners overseeing and directing patients’ health care by following embedded medical guidelines for chronic disease management as well as preventative care. Other health care professionals including nurses, nurse practitioners, dieticians and physical therapists will work together with physicians to provide care that is coordinated and sensitive to patient needs.

Located adjacent to Nevada Physical Therapy in the sports medicine complex on the University of Nevada, Reno campus, the Patient-Centered Family Medicine clinic is open and accepting new patients weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Medical advice and care is offered to patients 24-hours a day, seven-days-aweek by calling (775) 682-8200.
