The practice opened in December of 2008 with a single Nurse Practitioner and business plan intended on a 10 year growth period. Efforts that surround the principle of doing good for others and placing God before ourselves has turned a simple concept into a mission of change within the community. As a result, the anticipated 10 year mark was achieved at the second year of business.

****PICKING AND CHOOSING PATIENTS****
While I genuinely dislike writing negative reviews I do feel this system of practice should be brought to light when searching for a primary care provider. My family and I are new to Ashe County. I fully admit that it has been several years since my last physical and bloodwork. After experiencing symptoms of what could have been a TIA on Monday, it kicked me into swift gear in finding and getting back into routine medical care. I searched google and came across Ashe Family Healthcare. Some reviews were good and some not so good. The ones with Jordain stood

I made an appointment for that day and let the front desk know I did not have insurance but thought it would be less expensive for me to get checked out with my primary doctor than go to the ER and rack up a debt there.
