About Us
MISSION STATEMENT
- At Combined Care Center our goal is to educate as well as heal. We believe the clinical staff and the patient should work together as a team in order to achieve optimal health and well-being. We do not believe that the patient should plan on needing "maintenance" care, but that the treatment should affect a lasting improvement. We strive for resolution of the condition.
