Your care is personal. At University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC), our family medicine physicians in Baltimore and Howard County offer complete primary care for people of all ages, from newborns to seniors.

Our family doctors, nurse practitioners and physician assistants build long-term relationships with you and your family. Our open-access scheduling allows you to see a family physician within 24 hours of calling rather than wait weeks for an appointment.

Our big-picture, whole-person approach meets you and your family where you are and targets optimal health throughout your lifetime. And because we’re part of an academic medical center, you benefit from care informed by the latest research and innovations, plus seamless access to a network of specialists.
