Finding quality medical care as well as a caring medical physician who will both listen to you and advise you of your treatment options, do not have to be mutually exclusive. At Huntsman Medical Center, we look forward to creating a long and healthy relationship with you.

We are a small practice that focuses on individualized and preventative care. Our doctors are trained to treat patients of all ages - from newborns to senior citizens. Let us know how we can assist you with everything from routine preventative care, such as physical exams, vision or hearing screening, and acute care.

As family physicians, Drs. Jeffrey Nekoba and Alton Tucker know that the better informed our patients are, the better we can be of service to you. That is why if you have a question or concern and call our office, you always will get a call back. Our doctors and staff thank you and appreciate your trust in our care for you and your family.

The following information is provided to help answer some of the more common questions we encounter.
