About Us
HealthPoint seeks to provide evidence-based healthcare utilizing a patient-empowered team approach to achieve individual wellness for all Greater Brazos Valley community members. We do this through a comprehensive approach to your medical needs, including medical and dental services.
Throughout Texas' Greater Brazos Valley, HealthPoint has served the people who live and work in these rural areas. Our clinics are located throughout nine counties in the Greater Brazos Valley, including college towns, suburbs, and rural areas.
Our goal is to be the best place for patients to receive care, the best place for providers to practice medicine, and the best place for employees to work. Happy employees make for happy patients!
HealthPoint is for everyone, regardless of your insurance status. Our staff will help you apply for financial aid and explain all our support programs. We invite patients of all ages to visit the HealthPoint clinic in your neighborhood.
HealthPoint clinics receive funding from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services and have FTCA (Federal Tort Claims Act)-deemed status with respect to certain health or health-related claims, including medical malpractice claims, for itself and its covered individuals.
Federally Qualified Health Center
As a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), HealthPoint receives funds from the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) Health Center Program to provide primary care services in underserved areas.
According to the HRSA, “Health centers are community-based and patient-directed organizations that deliver comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services. Health centers also often integrate access to pharmacy, mental health, substance use disorder, and oral health services in areas where economic, geographic, or cultural barriers limit access to affordable health care services.”
As an FQHC, HealthPoint meets a stringent set of requirements, which includes providing services regardless of a patient’s ability to pay, charging for services on a sliding fee scale, and operating under a governing board that includes patients.
You, the patient, are the most important person when it comes to your healthcare. Your primary care team will take time to get to know you and work with you to provide the most effective care possible for treating your conditions and meeting your goals. We want you to have the best experience during your visits.
You and your family will be involved in your health care decisions. You will be able to set goals and discuss with your provider what works best for you. You will share in the responsibility of your health care and the care team at the clinic will be involved in helping you meet these goals.
It’s not about the building. Instead, it starts with the relationship you have with your physician. The primary care provider you choose learns about your needs and then leads a team of health care professionals to give you the tools you need to stay healthy and/or manage a chronic health condition.
