About
The team of medical professionals at OLV Family Care Center seeks to be a community health resource for your non-emergent medical needs. Our providers take the time to form one-on-one relationships with each of our patients to ensure that you and your loved ones receive the highest quality primary care, pediatrics, and nutrition counseling services.
The OLV Family Care Center provides healthcare services for the entire family. As a practice, our pediatric services extend to children who are at least 6 years old. If you are in need of services for someone who is younger than 6 years old, please find a pediatrician near you.
Services
Primary Care – Our primary care physicians are here to provide a constant support system for our patients to lean on. Few things are more important than your health, which we treat by conducting annual physicals, providing care for your non-emergent medical needs, and assessing symptoms for specialist referrals.
Nutrition Counseling – Counseling sessions with our expert dietitians provide a way for patients to examine how their lifestyle and diet are reflected in the way they feel. We hold ourselves to the highest standard of care by taking the time to understand patient concerns and observing your privacy.
Pediatrics – Pediatricians provide care for children and young adults up to the age of 21. Our trusted physicians focus on ensuring your loved ones' health by treating everything from minor injuries to complex health conditions. We encourage patients to visit our office for annual physicals, sick visits, and preventative healthcare.

Primary Care
Our part: Showing genuine compassion and care for each and every one of our patients, so you always have a place to turn with your non-emergent healthcare needs.
Catholic Health’s board-certified physicians place the utmost importance on getting to know you – your family history, risk factors, overall wellness, and any other related conditions. Together, we will make decisions about what’s best for you and your health.
The relationship between a patient and their primary care doctor is one of the most significant links in healthcare. We’re able to translate your symptoms so they can be understood by other caregivers, and coordinate a care plan based on our familiarity with your health history. We work to remain your touchpoint between how you’re feeling – in your own words – and recommending resources in the larger medical community.
Primary Care Services
Here are some primary care services provided by Catholic Health physicians:
- Treatment of common illnesses
- General physicals and preventative care
- Recommended immunizations
- Blood testing and specialist referrals
- Diagnosis and management of chronic conditions
Your part: All we ask is that you play an active role in your healthcare. Learn about yourself and what you can do to stay as healthy as possible. Understand how certain habits and lifestyle choices can impact your health.
And above all, know that an annual physical is vital to maintaining optimum health and wellness, as well as tracking changes in your growth and development. We’re committed to helping you live your healthiest life possible – schedule an appointment today.
