Continuity of patient care will be unaffected by the new partnership, according to clinic officials, and the doctors at this clinic that patients have come to trust with their care will remain at this location.<\/p>\n

The Comprehensive Care Clinic, located at 2000 W. Bethany Home Rd., Suite 200, will offer new opportunities for Midwestern University clinicians and students to provide patient-centered family medical care to the north central Phoenix community. The clinic\u2019s location at the Abrazo Central Campus also provides expanded hospital rotation opportunities and experience for students and residents.<\/p>\n
