Your first appointment
Your first visit is an intake appointment — we review your history, medications, and current concerns to set up your care.
Walk-in vs. family medicine — what's the difference?
Need care today? Walk in — no registration needed. Want a doctor who follows your health over time? Register for family medicine. As an ECMC patient, you can use both.
