Medical Services
You are automatically assigned a Primary Care Provider when you enroll at the University. Our goal is for you to see the same provider each time you schedule a visit at McKinley. However, it is your option to be seen by more available providers as necessary. We believe having a clinician who is familiar with you & your needs increases the quality of care you receive. Our providers offer services in internal medicine, family practice, psychiatry, & gynecology. The staff at McKinley work as a team to provide quality care & service.
