Choosing a Schneck Primary Care Provider

Step 1 - Assess Your Needs

Consider you and your family's current health needs. If you need routine or preventative care, or a good starting point to determine next steps, be proactive and look into getting a primary care provider at Schneck.

Step 2 - Consider the Patient's Age

Consider the age of you or your loved one before choosing an area of focus in primary care.

  • Pediatrics: typically treats patients between the ages of infancy and 21.
  • Family Medicine: treats patients through all life stages from newborn to elderly.
  • Internal Medicine: treats medically complicated adults and children.

Step 3 - Schedule an Appointment

Once you've made your decision, contact Schneck Medical Center, and we'll connect you with an available primary care provider. Our facilities are located in southeastern Indiana, making us an ideal healthcare provider for patients who live nearby.
