 Our History
 
 
 
 Community Health and Dental Care was formed through the generous funding of the Pottstown Area Health and Wellness Foundation along with various local businesses. Our doors opened in October 2008 with 39 medical and dental patients seen that first week and we&rsquo;ve grown to see thousands of medical and dental patients each year. As a non-profit community health center, we have been organized to become the patient&rsquo;s medical home for preventive care and to promote overall well-being, thus reducing the number of emergency room visits.
