DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CenterWell Senior Primary Care will open 10 new senior-focused primary care centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex throughout 2023. This will mark the company’s debut in North Texas, giving local seniors access to CenterWell’s personalized, care-team approach to healthcare. The first two centers’ grand openings are Feb. 1 (CenterWell Camp Bowie West) and Feb. 2 (CenterWell Seminary), both from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

CenterWell Senior Primary Care is one of the fastest-growing senior-focused, value-based care providers in the country. Together with its sister brand Conviva Care Center, CenterWell Senior Primary Care delivers care to seniors in more than 220 centers across 11 states, with plans to open 30-50 new centers per year through 2025.

“The Dallas-Fort Worth area continues its rapid growth, and a good portion of that growth is in the senior population,” said Sue Lamb, Market Vice President for Dallas-Fort Worth. “We are just thrilled to be entering this market right now. With our focus on underserved communities, we bring a new level of access to quality, coordinated care for seniors in this important market.”

Theresa Brown, D.O., CenterWell’s West Divisional Chief Medical Officer, said CenterWell is known for its focus on whole-person health.

“Texas seniors deserve a primary care provider who works hard getting to know them,” said Brown, a Fort Worth native whose division includes the Texas markets. “Because of our attention to the whole person, we can spend 30 to 40 minutes with each patient every time they come in, which is two to three times longer than what they may be used to at traditional doctors’ offices. Our integrated care teams know that seniors often contend with a variety of physical, social and emotional needs, all of which affect their overall health. We work to address each of the factors that contribute to a patient’s wellbeing.”

All new CenterWell Senior Primary Care locations in Fort Worth, Dallas and the Mid-Cities area will be staffed by board-certified physicians, nurses and behavioral health specialists, and patients will also have access to clinical pharmacists and referral specialists who have been specially trained to treat the senior population. In addition to its healthcare offerings, CenterWell facilities include activity centers for local seniors.

CenterWell Camp Bowie West, located at 9108 Camp Bowie West, and CenterWell Seminary, 4200 South Fwy, Suite 1990, both in Fort Worth, began accepting patients in November, with grand opening events set for Feb. 1 and 2, 2023, respectively. Additional centers opening soon include:

North Buckner
3312 N Buckner Blvd, Suite 213
Dallas, TX 75228
(Grand opening Feb. 16, 2023)

Other centers with planned openings this year include Redbird, Arlington, South Garland, Grand Prairie, North Richland Hills, Richardson, and CenterWell Northwest Dallas. Details will be released at a later date.
