Why choose Finger Lakes Community Health?

As a Community Health Center, Finger Lakes Community Health offers full medical, dental, and behavioral health services to everyone in our community. We accept most insurances and offer a generous sliding fee discount for services, regardless of a patient’s insurance status.

We listen. We take time with our patients. And we get to know you. This philosophy lies at the heart of everything we do, and we practice it every day.

At Finger Lakes Community Health, we are:

Advocates for a healthy community. We strive to bring a new standard of healthcare to our region through education, technology, and preventive care.

A dedicated team of quality providers. Our patients have access to a caring team of doctors, dentists, nurses, physicians’ assistants, dental hygienists and mental health providers. They are experts in the fields of medical and dental care, as well as behavioral health counseling. We also have support staff that help patients with non-medical issues such as referrals, follow-up, transportation, financial advocacy, and insurance enrollment.

Experts in coordinated care. Coordinated care ensures that every part of a patient’s treatment plan is organized through their provider and delivered in a way that meets the patient’s needs and preferences. Our Geneva, Penn Yan, Ovid, Newark, Port Byron, Bath and Sodus Community Health Centers have all been awarded the highest Level 3 Certification as Patient-Centered Medical Homes (PCMH) from the National Committee on Quality Assurance. This recognition shows our commitment to providing top-quality healthcare.

Our staff: Putting patients first.

Our staff work hard to make every visit a good experience for our patients. Their goal is to help our patients feel comfortable throughout every step of the healthcare process.

Our staff consists of:

Medical and dental providers including primary care physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, mental health counselors, dentists, and dental hygienists. We also have access to specialists, hospitals, and other medical centers.

Patient Navigators will help you understand the healthcare system and connect you with the right resources. They can also assist with forms, referrals, appointments, and even billing.

Financial Advocates will assist you with health insurance enrollment through the New York State of Health Marketplace or other appropriate programs.

Patient Advocates can help you with factors that may be restricting your access to health care or a healthier quality of life. These may include transportation, housing, financial, or insurance issues.

Hear what our patients have to say:

Leaders in health education and technology.

Building a healthy community is not simply a matter of providing health services, but of supporting innovation and education. We work directly with the community to provide education about our services, and to help improve access and quality of care.

We are also an early adopter of Telehealth technology. When our patients can’t travel to see a specialist, we bring the specialist to them via internet and video technology. Telehealth enables us to do remote training, specialist consultations, and remote diagnosis with patients after hours and when they can’t get to our health centers. This technological innovation has been a breakthrough in enabling access for patients in rural areas far from hospitals or urban medical centers.
