About the Clinic

Divider line about clinic

Cedar Valley Primary Care & Walk-In Clinic opened in January 2021. We are proud to offer quick, personal, and thorough medical care to all patients, regardless of age. We provide acute care for things such as minor illnesses, sprains, fractures, rashes, sore throats, coughs, etc. With being on-site with ADI (Advanced Diagnostic Imaging) we are able to quickly diagnosis most acute health conditions (most insurances allow for immediate radiology services, some require prior authorization)

In addition to acute care, we provide primary health care for all chronic conditions such as:
  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure
  • Thyroid disease
  • Kidney disease
  • High cholesterol
  • Mental health conditions
