Primary Care Specialists, a provider in the area of family medicine, has joined the Regional One Health family.

Transitioning to Regional One Health means the physicians and nurse practitioners of Primary Care Specialists are now part of UT Regional One Physicians.

"The acquisition of Primary Care Specialists is another indicator of our progress at Regional One Health and a positive for patients as we increase access to care," said Reginald Coopwood, MD, president and CEO of Regional One Health. "Adding a primary care practice in the midtown area gives more health care options as we cover from downtown to east Memphis."
