Since 2015, the Central Outreach Wellness Center (COWC) has been dedicated to providing healthcare for all individuals.
As a sexual wellness clinic, Central Outreach primarily serves and strengthens the LGBTQ+ community by providing essential prevention and treatment for HIV and STIs. We also cure more cases of Hep C than any other medical clinic.
We stand as a fierce advocate for our patients, fighting to eliminate barriers that impact health outcomes—especially for people of trans and queer experience, people of color, those living with HIV, and those struggling with addiction.
Our mission is to foster wellness by caring for the whole person, treating each patient with cultural humility, compassion, and respect. We understand that everyone’s healthcare needs are different, and we’re here to support you at every step of your wellness journey.
Not at all. While we specialize in serving these communities with culturally humble and tailored care, our primary care services are available to everyone. Your health and well-being are our priority.
Primary care is essential for staying healthy. It helps you manage chronic conditions, make informed health decisions, connect with specialists, and take care of your physical, mental, and emotional well-being – all in one place.
It’s generally recommended to see your primary care provider for an annual check-up, even if you feel healthy. If you have chronic health issues or specific medical needs, your provider may suggest more frequent visits to monitor and manage your condition.
If your primary care provider determines you need specialized care, they will refer you to a trusted specialist. They’ll also coordinate with the specialist to ensure you receive comprehensive and integrated care.
