Primary care is the foundation of individual health care. Your primary care provider understands your overall health better than any other medical professional. That big-picture perspective allows them to treat acute illnesses, manage chronic diseases and refer you to specialists when necessary.

At UK Family & Community Medicine – Georgetown, you’ll find a wide range of primary care services for your whole family. That’s why families from Scott County and throughout Central Kentucky turn to us to help them manage their well-being.

Need an annual wellness exam or a long-term plan to treat diabetes? Want to ensure your child is ready for the upcoming school year with a back-to-school physical exam or recommended vaccinations? Our Georgetown primary care clinic offers these services and so much more. We’re here to help you and your family thrive.
