Managing care for a loved one is complex.
Whether you’re caring for a loved one in your home, or you’re a family member trying to coordinate care for a loved one who currently resides in an assisted- or independent-living community, get help and answers here.
Legacy Medical serves adult patients with illnesses ranging from the simple to the complex. We have expertise in providing medical care to individuals with complicated, chronic health conditions, as well as specialized geriatric care to elderly patients. Our patient population includes those who are unable or too sick to travel to the doctor and patients wishing to avoid crowded, conventional waiting rooms.

Legacy does NOT provide Emergency Services. We provide On-Site Express Care Clinics at the communities we serve. If we believe you have a life-threatening medical emergency, we will refer you to the emergency department of your local hospital, or the hospital of your choice.
We see patients often and respond promptly to urgent care needs. Our goal is to provide care that keeps our seniors from unnecessary ER visits and hospitalizations.
Many of the medical services you expect from a traditional office-based medical clinic can be performed on-site by our providers. These services include comprehensive physical examinations, Medicare annual wellness visits, acute care visits, chronic disease evaluation and management, simple procedures, medication prescription and management, referrals for diagnostic and lab testing, and referrals to specialists, therapy, home health, and hospice.
The Legacy team works closely with patients, their families, and facility teams to coordinate care.

Yes! It’s as simple as letting us know that you want us to become your primary care provider.
Yes. We schedule the same provider for each visit, unless the provider is out of town and you need to be seen on an urgent basis. In that case, we will arrange for you to be seen by another of our outstanding providers, who will have the benefit of your complete medical record at his or her fingertips.
On average, patients are visited about once a month. Patients may be seen more or less frequently based on their individual needs.
