It is a clinic that operates as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) under the umbrella of Delaware Valley Community Health, Inc. (DVCH). The center was established in 1986 after a renovation of an old auto parts warehouse.

The center has been recognized as a Pennsylvania Opioid Use Disorder Center of Excellence. In addition to medical services, the clinic offers care coordination, health education, and assistance with health insurance enrollment, demonstrating a holistic approach to patient care. The presence of Elarbi Elamin A DDS indicates that dental services are a key part of the care provided at this location.

This is the worst experience every. I have been waiting for about 6 months to get my teeth cleaned. The day of my cleaning, they cancelled because some machine went down, and told me I have to wait 3 more month. A week later they told me no one was available the day I was scheduled and tacked on another month.

This place is the absolute worst, I haven't experienced anything like it. Don't go here if you have an other choice.

Improved over the years but made many mistakes in the past. It seems they got rid of a lot of the rude dentist. Growing up going here when I was a kid I had a rude lady and although I stopped having her I saw she still worked there . I know nothing about doctors here . Dentist I had currently was Abreo .

He does listen when told an issue but I do feel like when he worked on one tooth & the roughness of the procedure being performed had the tools hitting another tooth actually multiple teeth , too aggressive but the dentist will listen to complaints when made. I stayed at this place more so because of history but I see the reviews are low and there aren’t really any. The dentist is accommodating when told so be sure to say something but if not they will just treat you like you’re not a human being it will feel more experimental. They have a lot more new staff , more women so that’s good and I think they’re working towards improvements so that’s a plus at least .
