First Choice Community Healthcare’s top priority is the health, safety, and well-being of our patients, our staff, and our communities. As we respond to the COVID-19 crisis we continue to provide access to care for all of our patients. First Choice providers are now using telemedicine to evaluate and treat patients. Your healthcare provider can contact you over the phone or the computer while you continue to practice social distancing. We are currently scheduling telemedicine visits with our medical, behavioral health, and dental providers, and we will continue to offer on-site visits when needed. We want to encourage you to maintain your health and wellness, and First Choice is here to help you.

Dear Friends,
For as long as First Choice Community Healthcare has been providing primary care, our Health Centers have been passionate
proponents of healthy communities. As a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, First Choice employs over 450 New Mexicans at
our nine delivery sites that are strategically located throughout central New Mexico. Our Health Centers deliver high quality,
cost effective, accessible care while serving as critical economic engines helping to power local economies. In the early 1970s,
we started our first clinics in empty church buildings and storefronts. We got the word out through community outreach
workers that we serve everyone, regardless of income or whether they had insurance. The word of mouth spread far and wide
across Central New Mexico. In 2018, we provided a healthcare home to more than 53,000 individuals and their families.
Now, 47 years later...
