St. Louis Park
(Main Location)

Our integrated medical approach is ideally suited to meet the health care needs of you and each generation of your family and is available in English, Spanish and Russian. Our primary care physicians are highly trained in treating medical conditions involving any organ system in persons of all ages, male and female.

We treat patients with respect, dignity, and compassion.

We work in partnership to build and enable strong, trusting relationships among patients, families, providers, and staff. You will always be able to schedule an appointment with your preferred doctor, and we will strive to meet your specific personal and cultural needs. Our doctors are also well-versed in treating patients with interpreters present, taking extra time to ensure non-English speaking patients fully understand everything that occurs during an appointment. Our practice provides superior quality primary care for adults and children and was certified by MN Department of Health as a Health Care Home in 2013.

Our comprehensive, person-centered care model is known as “the medical home”.

A medical home is not a building or a house, and it is not a health care service performed in your own home. Rather, it is an approach to providing quality, comprehensive care for children, youth, and adults. Through this model, our team of professionals will work together to help you and your family coordinate, access and understand care options that are important for your overall health.
Life Medical provides added value to patients through our medical home certification. We have coordinators which help with all sorts of case management; from arranging transportation to helping coordinate referrals, translation services, motivating patients to ensure that they are compliant with medications and instructions etc. These added services are the reason we say that our clinic is truly “person-centered” than other clinics without the medical home certification.

We treat patients with respect, dignity, and compassion.

Through the medical home model, we work in partnership to build and enable strong, trusting relationships among patients, families, providers and staff. You will always be able to schedule an appointment with your preferred doctor, and we will strive to meet your specific personal and cultural needs.
