Through this partnership, GCFP neighbors will have access to on-site health checks, health-related information, and educational resources in a welcoming, familiar setting. Educational materials will be available in the reception area, and Rural Health Initiative team members will be present during GCFP hours to engage with neighbors and help connect them with care. 

About the Lake Country Rural Health Initiative

The Lake Country Rural Health Initiative is dedicated to expanding equitable access to healthcare in rural and underserved communities. Led by Dr. Nicolas Chronos, managing partner of Lake Country Medical Group, the Initiative partners with academic institutions and community organizations to provide free health screenings, preventative care, and health education. Through its collaboration with student volunteers from the University of Georgia, the Initiative also supports hands-on clinical training while improving health outcomes for communities in need.
