Inova opens family clinic in Annandale

Inova celebrated the grand opening of the Inova Cares for Families (ICF) clinic in Annandale on April 4.

The clinic is located in an office building at 7617 Little River Turnpike. It’s one of six ICF facilities in Northern Virginia.

ICF provides primary healthcare and medical care for families who qualify for Medicaid, Virginia’s Family Access to Medical Insurance Security Plan, or are uninsured.

The Annandale location will provide comprehensive primary care services, including sick and well visits, physicals, nurse case management, education and counseling for disease prevention, psychosocial support, and care coordination.

“Today’s opening reinforces Inova’s dedication to meeting our community’s healthcare needs and upholding our commitment to provide high-quality healthcare to each person in every community we are privileged to serve,” said Inova President and CEO Dr. J. Stephen Jones.

“Our Fairfax Community Health Needs Assessment clearly identified healthcare access as a top Annandale community health issue,” commented Karen Berube, Inova senior vice president for community health.

“We understand families face challenges accessing care for social and healthcare needs including obesity, nutrition, and mental health,” Berube said. “With this opening, we are assuring a medical home in the community to address immediate needs and cultivate long-term wellbeing.”

ICF has had significant growth over the last decade. The program served a total of 13,172 patients last year in all of its locations, including 1,936 pediatric patients.

Inova has been named the Health System of the Year by Press Ganey, a national leader in healthcare experience.
