Community Health center of oklahoma - Shawnee Family Medical Center

Since its grand opening in 2013, Community Health’s Shawnee Family Medical Center has experienced more than 28,000 patient visits by Pottawatomie County residents who were seeking an affordable, accessible primary care medicine home for all their healthcare needs.

             The Center is located in the heart of the city at 130 N. Broadway, Suite 300.

             Shawnee Family Medical Center plays a major role in improving health outcomes for a large, previously underserved population in Pottawatomie County. The vast majority of Center patents are from low-income households, lack health insurance and/or qualify for Medicaid.

             The Center, with a staff of seven, in addition to two nurse practitioners and one physician, fills an important community need by offering the following services: primary medical care (diagnoses, treatments, and medications for temporary and chronic illnesses); behavioral health (addiction and mental health); and case management. 

 In 2021, the Center welcomed 1,441 individual patients that totaled 4,431 visits. Patients ranged in age from under 1 to over 85, and women represented 62 percent of all patients served.
