Oxbow Primary Care is Cooley Dickinson’s newest primary care practice, located at our newest medical building at 15 Atwood Drive. With providers who have pursued specialties in addition to board certifications in Family Medicine, the practice has particular expertise in prenatal care, obstetrics and birth, pediatrics, and LGBTQ care, and is dedicated to serving families of every variety and of all ages.

The Genesis of Oxbow Primary Care

As a primary care service provider, Cooley Dickinson is constantly pursing ways to improve access for patients and to meet the evolving health care needs of the communities we serve. In addition to providing comprehensive primary care services, the training and skills sets of the provider team at Oxbow will offer some added programming in a primary care setting.

All of the providers at Oxbow have interest and experience in providing LGBTQ-friendly care. Additionally, two of our family medicine physicians provide obstetrics care, which allows them to support patients and families at all phases of their lives. Primary care service is about relationship-building. Oxbow offers another avenue for our patients to establish meaningful relationships with their providers, and to ensure that they are getting great care the way they want it delivered.
