About the Company

ChenMed

High-touch primary care for underserved seniors

ChenMed provides primary care for underserved, moderate-to-low-income seniors with complex chronic diseases through a network of 100+ centers across 15 states. Its high-touch, preventive primary care model emphasizes longer visits and closer patient relationships, enabled by a lower doctor-patient ratio and physician-led operations. This approach distinguishes it from typical primary care providers by offering more time per patient, personalized care, and a mission-driven culture. ChenMed aims to improve health outcomes and lives by delivering accessible, patient-centered care while transforming how care is delivered to needy seniors.
