Philanthropic Efforts

Medical Missions

Many of our physicians use their free time to help the less fortunate. Each year, 10 Patients First doctors travel to other countries to lead medical missions.

Community Connections

Caring For Your Family, Supporting Our Community

Our business is providing quality health care for you and your family members. But, we also acknowledge that a healthy community also requires financial support from businesses within that community.

Every year, Patients First sponsors a variety of community and not-for profit organizations and events within our service area. In 2009 Patients First contributed more than $121,000 to local community and charitable organizations. These contributions support the efforts of these groups, large and small, that make up the fabric of the communities we serve.

To request our support for your group download our Donation Request Form and follow its instructions.

The following organizations and causes is a sampling of groups and events that were supported by Patients First in 2009.
