This deal, which came into effect on November 15, is being heralded as a bright new chapter in community-focused healthcare.
What Does This Mean for Patients?
For the 36,000 individuals who count on these clinics for their health needs, this transition means they can expect the same level of care and commitment they’ve always enjoyed.

He stated, “Park Medical Centers has rightly earned a reputation as a provider of quality family care established over its considerable history.” It’s clear that continuity and care remain the priority for McLaren.
A Legacy of Care

Together, they are committed to enhancing patient-focused care as they embark on this exciting new journey with McLaren.
The Future Looks Bright
