Medical ServicesPCRM Clinic d/b/a Barnard Medical Center (BMC) is a primary care facility providing comprehensive care for adults. Along with providing primary care needs, the clinicians at BMC also offer top-notch specialized care through nutrition and prevention to patients with diabetes, obesity, hypertension, lipid disorders, heart disease, arthritis, and migraines. BMC offers consultation, annual exams, telehealth visits, nutrition counseling, and medical nutrition therapy services. BMC clinicians try to tackle the root causes of the illness by providing extra attention to the patient and help patients adopt a healthier lifestyle. Although BMCs board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, and registered dietitians provide state-of-the-art medical care, many of the patients still need more support. While lifestyle changes and nutrition can make a huge difference in a patients health, it can be hard for patients to adapt to a new lifestyle. That is why the experts at BMC offer lifestyle management for patients to help prevent, treat, and in many cases, reverse some chronic conditions.

Our providers also provide telehealth visits to patients in the following states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Washington.

Since opening in January 2016, BMC has had more than 17,379 appointments.
