Focus on the Whole Patient

An individual’s health and well-being go beyond bones and muscles. At George Fox, we’ll train you to focus on the whole person, considering not just their physical health but their mental, emotional and spiritual state as well.

By making yourself available as part of a primary care team, you’ll be able to prioritize patient needs over administrative structures in a way that the traditional healthcare industry is rarely able to achieve.
