When it comes to managing your health, having a Primary Care Provider (PCP) is one of the most important decisions you can make. But what exactly is a PCP, and why should you consider Aslan Health Clinic as your trusted source for primary care?
What is a Primary Care Provider (PCP)?
A Primary Care Provider is your go-to healthcare professional for day-to-day health needs. Think of a PCP as your personal health advocate—someone who gets to know you, your medical history, and your long-term wellness goals. PCPs:
- Provide routine checkups and preventive care
- Diagnose and treat common illnesses
- Help manage chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure
- Coordinate with specialists if you need additional care
- Offer guidance on healthy lifestyle choices and mental well-being
PCPs are typically nurse practitioners, physicians, or physician assistants trained in family medicine, internal medicine, or pediatrics.
Why Having a PCP Matters
Establishing a relationship with a PCP means you’re not starting from scratch every time you have a health concern. Your provider understands your unique background and can catch potential issues early—before they become serious. Regular visits help you stay on top of vaccinations, screenings, lab work, and other critical health markers.
Why Choose Aslan Health as Your PCP?
At Aslan Health, we believe primary care is more than just treating symptoms—it’s about caring for the whole person: body, mind, and spirit.
Here’s why more individuals and families are choosing Aslan as their medical home:
1. Whole-Person Care
We approach health through the lens of faith, compassion, and community. Our providers look beyond the physical symptoms to care for emotional and spiritual needs as well. Our model is built on seven pillars of health including faith life, emotional wellness, relationships, nutrition, movement, and more.
2. Affordable Access
We understand that healthcare can feel out of reach for many. That’s why we offer:
- Walk-in and appointment-based visits
- Low-cost services
- Sliding fee scales based on income

- Acceptance of Medicaid and Medicare
No insurance? No problem. We believe everyone deserves quality care regardless of their ability to pay.
