If you would like to schedule an appointment, please call us, or do so below. We accept walk-ins, but always recommend a scheduled appointment.
FRIENDLY NOTE
Central Outreach is part of the Safe Space Alliance, and we provide Inclusive healthcare to EVERYONE with dignity and respect, including patients who identify themselves outside the gender binary.
On the other hand, the electronic medical record tool we use to facilitate scheduling appointments with us only provides the ability to specify either of the binary genders. We understand that this might be of concern to some of our patients, so in the interim, we request that you pick a gender on your driver's license, and we can discuss/address it at the office during your visit. We are working on transitioning to another electronic medical record to resolve this situation, so we apologize for any inconvenience incurred.
Thank you for your consideration!
