Latterman Family Health Center

Our Family Health center and Residency program has been serving the needs of families of the Mon Valley area since 1974. Latterman Family Health Center has been in its current location (2347 Fifth Avenue – McKeesport, PA 15132) since 1999.

Here our family doctors, along with resident physicians preparing for careers in family medicine, provide medical care to all members of a family: infants, children, parents, grandparents, and pregnant moms.

At Latterman Family Health Center, we focus on preventive medicine, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and chronic disease management.

Latterman Family Health Center is an NCQA Level III certified Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH). Part of being a PCMH site is that you will be cared for by a team of health care providers (Doctors, Pharmacist, medical assistants, Nurses, and Case managers). You will be always informed and involved in any decision making process affecting your care.

If you must change your appointment, call us at least 24 hours before your scheduled appointment time. This courtesy allows us to schedule another patient for care. The receptionist can reschedule your appointment at that time.

The easiest and fastest way to get your prescriptions refilled is at your next office visit. However, if your prescription will run out before your next visit, please call 412-673-5504 for a refill. Please call for refill before you run out and allow 1-2 business days for prescriptions to be filled.

Certain medications, such as narcotic pain medications, may not be refilled without an appointment. When you call, be ready to give the following information:
