Our Core Values

The philosophies embodied in our Mission confirm our commitment to these Core Values.

Patient First – An approach to care that holds primary, the well-being and desires of the patient.

Build not Blame – Focusing first on finding fault with the process, rather than the person.

Integrity and Honesty – Fostering an acceptance of openness, honesty and fairness in words, deeds and the use of organizational resources judiciously for both internal and external customers.

Cooperation and Flexibility – Related to an internal belief that we function as part of tan interdependent team with only shared gains or losses, thereby committed to assisting whenever possible beyond the prerequisite job description,

Culturally Sensitive – Always working toward increasing one’s ability to understand, communicate with, effectively interact and care for people across cultures, while having an acute awareness of one’s own culture.

In 1989, a Gaston County community-based indigent care task force composed of concerned citizens, business leaders, elected local officials, and representatives of Gaston Memorial Hospital, was formed to address the need of the growing uninsured population and the use of episodic emergency department care as an inappropriate substitute for primary care. The group was concerned with providing the right care at the right time, at the right place. The result was the establishment of Gaston Family Health Services (GFHS) with a mission to provide family healthcare to anyone in need, regardless of ability to pay. With technical assistances from the North Carolina Office of Rural Health, GFHS was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 1991. GFHS saw its first patients in 1992 at the practice co-located within Gaston County Health Department building on Hudson Blvd. in Gastonia.

Today, our team of family medicine physicians, pediatricians, advanced practice providers, dentists, psychologists and behavioral health providers care for patients at over 30 practices throughout Alamance, Alexander, Caldwell, Catawba, Cleveland, Davidson, Davie, Forsyth, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln, Mecklenburg Randolph, Stanly, Union and Yadkin counties.
