Altheda has Greek origins, derived from the name Ἀλθαία, meaning “healer,” and comes from the Greek word ἀλθαίνω, which means “to cure.” Altheda is the Goddess of healing and compassion, inspiring trust in the triumph of good, embracing mercy and compassion, and fostering support for family and community. Ἀλθαία aligns with our mission to bring wellness and healing to communities, which is why we proudly carry the name Altheda Medical Center.
Altheda Medical Center was founded to address several key issues in healthcare and aims to be a part of the solutions by focusing on ➊ accessibility, ➋ convenience, ➌ comprehensive care, and ➍ patient experience.
Here are the main issues and how Altheda seeks to resolve them:
Many patients face difficulties accessing care due to insurance denials, long waits for appointments, and fragmented access to specialists.
Patients often struggle with managing their care across multiple providers, leading to confusion, missed appointments, and lost medical records.
Patients often have to visit multiple locations for different services, which is inconvenient and time-consuming.
Many primary care clinics focus on only one specialty, and there is often no direct collaboration between departments, leaving gaps in preventative care and overall wellness.
Patients at times can feel overlooked or undervalued in traditional healthcare settings, leading to dissatisfaction and frustration.
Altheda was founded with the goal of addressing these gaps in the healthcare system, creating a compassionate, comprehensive, and accessible environment where patients can receive managed and holistic care that meets their needs.
Serve communities with accessible, comprehensive and quality healthcare.
Be a trusted healthcare resource across neighborhoods, prioritizing patient experience and managed care.
