Our Interprofessional Team

ETSU Health Family Medicine provides health care for all ages at three clinic locations in the Tri-Cities.

At each of our clinics, a team of health care professionals works together to show you the best ways to improve and maintain your health. Our team will treat you as a whole person. We even take care of you when you are admitted to the hospital.
