PRIMARY CARE

Primary care is patient-centered, comprehensive healthcare that addresses diverse health needs and serves as the first point of contact and ongoing care partner.

PHARMACY

Pharmacy is the field of health science concerned with the preparation, dispensing, and appropriate use of medications to support patient care and improve health outcomes.

RADIOLOGY

Radiology is a medical specialty that uses imaging techniques like X-rays, MRI, and CT scans to diagnose and treat diseases.

CERVICAL DYSPLASIA

Cervical dysplasia is the abnormal growth of cells on the cervix, often caused by HPV, which can lead to cervical cancer if untreated.

Testimonials

What Our Patients are Saying
“Dr. Shepherd was amazing. Clean, welcoming, and friendly setting.”

“I took my daughter to Hitchcock Direct Imaging for a chest X-ray and had a great experience from beginning to end! ”
“The cash price was very affordable. We were able to get in almost immediately, and the whole visit was quick and easy. The staff was kind, friendly, and helpful, and they made us feel comfortable the entire time. I would definitely recommend Hitchcock Direct Imaging. - A. L. ”
“Dr. Hitchcock is the best doctor I have ever had. We have been with him since the beginning.”
“He is honest, caring, and knowledgeable. I love that he keeps up with the latest research and can answer any question I ask him. I can call or text and he answers right away. Another great perk is that he dispenses our medications. We would never go anywhere else.”
— Sandra K.

“We recommend Hitchcock Family Medicine to everyone we know!”
“Dr. H answers emails promptly. He has met us in the middle of the day to remove a Lego from my son's nose and after hours for stitches for my husband and my son on different occasions (avoiding ER waits and charges). We always have the office to ourselves, and we never feel rushed. Our concerns are always heard. We wouldn't want anyone else for our PCP.”
— Bekah
“It's like having a brother-in-law who's a doctor!”
— Steven
“The absolute best imaging experience I’ve ever had. Very quick and very affordable! -A. H. ”
“Again, easy as can be. ”
“As a new patient, I had some bloodwork done and it said I had high cholesterol (apparently 5 stars also go to Chick-fil-a, In N Out Burger, and the delicious Guatemalan place down the road) but they had the machine to look inside me...now I sound like a child not remember what the machine was but it was in their office. So I made the appointment, showed up the day of, and within 30 minutes was done. Easy as can be. I don't know that I WANT to do it again, but it's nice to know if I need to, it'll be such a painless process and I'm thankful for that.”
— B. Edwards
