MetroHealth's Primary Care Team

We don't believe that primary care should be one-size-fits-all—and we encourage our patients to think the same way. It's important to have a provider who knows you as a person—not just a name on a schedule or chart. Building a long-term relationship with your doctor means you have an expert on your side to help you meet your health needs and goals, even as they change over time.

Choosing a provider is the first step in your health journey. At MetroHealth, our diverse team of experts works together to provide the right care for your specific needs. From specialized doctors to advanced practice providers, here is a guide to the professionals ready to partner with you.

Meet the Team

• Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs): These are board-certified physicians who focus on a "whole-person" approach to health. They look beyond your symptoms to understand how lifestyle and environment affect your overall wellbeing.
• Internal Medicine Physicians (Internists): These doctors specialize in adult healthcare. They are experts at managing complex medical conditions and routine wellness for patients ages 18 and older.
• Family Medicine Physicians: These doctors are your "all-in-one" resource. They are trained to care for everyone in your family, from newborns to seniors, and often provide routine OB-GYN services like prenatal care.
• Internal Medicine-Pediatrics (Med-Peds): These specialists are "double-trained" in both adult medicine and pediatrics. They are uniquely qualified to care for patients of any age, especially those with complex needs that continue from childhood into adulthood.
• Pediatricians: Our specialists provide expert, compassionate care tailored specifically to infants, children, and teens, ensuring they hit every developmental milestone.
• Nurse Practitioners (NPs): With advanced clinical training, our NPs are key members of your care team. They perform physicals, diagnose illnesses, prescribe medications, and help you manage your health journey.
• Physician Assistants (PAs): PAs are highly trained clinicians who work in partnership with your doctor to provide high-quality care, from performing exams and ordering tests to managing chronic conditions.
