Flourish Family Medicine & OB/GYN

OUR VISION

Our vision is to reclaim dignified healthcare, protect life, and strengthen families. Flourish Family Medicine & OB/GYN will honor the dignity of each of our patients throughout their lifespan - from the newly conceived baby to the elderly.

Our mission is to treat everyone who walks through our doors with exceptional medical care that is compassionate and Christ-centered.

Our goal is to open in Greenville in early 2026.

Flourish Family Medicine & OB/GYN will provide medical services that are in adherence with Catholic moral teaching and bioethics according to the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services. Flourish will welcome patients of all faiths and no faith. We are an independent 501(c)3 organization.

A WARM WELCOME

Our Flourish clinic will be designed to give our patients feelings of welcome, calm and comfort. We will have comfortable upholstered furniture, pleasant lighting, plants and artwork. Our patients’ little ones will have a fun space of their own. Our exam rooms will have soft robes in place of hospital gowns, and fabric instead of paper where possible. Our Flourish clinicians and staff will treat each of our patients and visitors as a valued son or daughter of God.

A PLACE TO PRAY

Within our clinic, Flourish will include a small, beautiful chapel. Each clinic day will start with the staff gathering in prayer to pray that we can be Christ to each of our patients and visitors coming through our doors that day.

The chapel will also be open to patients during office hours to give them a place to pray and meditate.
