🎉 Exciting News for Wilkes County! 🎉

Medical Associates Plus is proud to announce that we have been awarded a $500,000 New Access Point (NAP) Grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)! This funding will support the expansion of affordable, high-quality healthcare services in Wilkes County, Georgia.

Our newest health center, located at 119 Gordon Street in Washington, GA, will provide primary care and ancillary services under the leadership of Dr. Kirk Dodson and a dedicated healthcare team. The clinic will be open Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

As a Federally Qualified Health Center, Medical Associates Plus is committed to serving patients regardless of their ability to pay. This grant will help us continue expanding access to care for uninsured, underinsured, and Medicaid patients who need quality healthcare close to home.

"This funding opportunity is yet another step in our goal to reach patients in need of access to quality healthcare. MAP continues to be in the community for the community, helping people live stronger, longer," said CEO J.R. Richards.

We look forward to serving Wilkes County residents and connecting them with the full Medical Associates Plus network of specialty services.

💙 In the Community. For the Community. Helping People Live Stronger, Longer.
