The Hardwick Area Health Center is a family practice designed to make
health care and health education more readily available to area residents.
We offer complete, coordinated, and individualized health care to
people of all ages; from babies to great-grandparents. In this sense,
we try to fill the role of the old-time family doctor.
We have designed our Health Center to include the most modern approaches
to health care. We provide a one-stop location for many of your family's
health needs, including primary medical care, laboratory tests, and
a variety of programs geared toward health maintenance - the prevention
of illness.
Our staff will work with you to treat you when you are sick, and to
keep you healthy when you are feeling well.
We offer diagnosis and treatment of illness, as well as preventive
health care. We assist patients in managing their chronic illnesses,
and make referrals to specialists as needed.
