Your Family's Health Care Partner

Our Story

In the late 1960s, Community Health Services (CHS) started as a small, seasonal clinic to provide health care services to migrant workers. It was staffed by volunteers and located in the back of a local pharmacy. We've grown a lot over the years, and we’re proud to continue to provide quality health care to generations of families in the communities we serve. 

For 50 years, Community Health Services has been recognized as one of the most respected health systems in Northwest Ohio. You can always expect to receive excellent care and customer service at all of our offices because at CHS you’re not just a patient, you’re our priority. 

CHS is accredited by the Joint Commission and is certified as a "Primary Care Medical Home" or PCMH. This special accreditation means that CHS is recognized as a model for primary care excellence.

We have nine offices throughout Northwest Ohio. All of our CHS locations are handicap accessible and interpreter services are available for patients who speak a language other than English, and those who are hearing impaired.
