As a center of excellence in HIV medicine, our physicians and providers specialize in treatment and prevention of the virus. To us that means going beyond the HIV diagnosis itself and providing whole person care, whether medical, emotional, or daily wellness. We take all major insurance, including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial.  If you do not have insurance coverage, we offer financial assistance programs including Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program.

We know talking about your sexual health can be uncomfortable or intimidating. Your sexual health is an essential part of taking care of your overall health. At the David Powell Health Center, we want you to feel empowered to share your truths and lived experiences whether that be about sex, sexuality, gender or creed.  Our forward-thinking practitioners value any thoughts, questions, or concerns you may have and encourage you to be 100% yourself.
