Doctor and Patient Interaction

We're so glad you're here.

At Galatians Community Health, we believe that everyone deserves access to compassionate, high-quality care. Our mission is simple: to create a world where equitable healthcare is available to everyone. We work daily to realize this vision. To uplift and support marginalized communities' overall health and well-being through access to quality healthcare and encouraging healthy lifestyles. Through expert care and a whole-person approach, we’re here to help you and your family thrive.

Our clinic is inclusive. We don’t want to turn anyone away because we believe everyone deserves access to quality care regardless of their race, social status, or economic position. When you look at the world of healthcare equity, the best care is typically given to those who are socially and economically privileged. We’re trying to change that. You’re a human being, you deserve quality healthcare, period.

Our Philosophy
Care that sees you. Care that stays with you. 

At Galatians Community Health, we believe that healthcare should be personal, not transactional. It should feel like home — safe, warm, and empowering. Every patient who walks through our doors is met with compassion and respect, regardless of their income, insurance status, or background. We know that trust is earned, not assumed, and we work every day to build it, moment by moment, visit by visit.

​

We are a BIPOC-owned and majority BIPOC-led practice, shaped by lived experiences that mirror those of our patients. Our care goes beyond prescriptions and procedures. We listen deeply, respond swiftly, and treat every individual as a whole — honoring their stories, their families, and their futures.

​

We are especially dedicated to women and children because healthier mothers and children build stronger communities. It’s why we focus on reducing maternal and infant mortality in underrepresented populations. And it’s why our mission is simple but urgent: to remove every barrier between our patients and the care they deserve.

​

At Galatians, you’ll find a partner, a haven, and a team that truly cares.

Our History
We’ve been there, so we built something better.

At 18 years old, our founder, Wanett Mims, found herself navigating pregnancy while on Medicaid, without a steady doctor, and without the support every mother deserves. The system made her feel small, lost in paperwork, judged, and uncertain where to turn. That experience shaped everything she’s built since. Galatians Community Health was born out of her commitment to make sure no one else has to go through that kind of fear alone.

​

The truth is, many families in our community still face the same struggle.


Over 2.7 million North Carolinians live in areas with limited access to primary care. It's even harder for Medicaid recipients—only 25% of primary care providers in North Carolina accept new Medicaid patients (NC Health News). And when it comes to maternal health, Black women in our state are 3.2 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes compared to white women (CDC MMWR).

​

We saw the gaps—and we stepped in.

​

We started in 2016 as A Plus Family Care, serving families who struggled to find care that truly welcomed them. In 2022, due to financial challenges, we rebranded as Galatians Community Health to reflect a deeper mission: whole-person, whole-family care for a community that’s been too often overlooked.

​

Today, we care for more than 5,000 patients a year. That includes over 3,600 women in our women’s health program and more than 2,700 children and families through pediatric and primary care. And we’ve grown fast, because the need is urgent.

​

But we’re not here just to grow. We’re here to build something lasting.

​

At Galatians, every patient matters. We care about your physical health, your mental health, your family, and your future. We believe consistent, culturally aware care saves lives and transforms communities.

​

Where We’re Going

We see a future where equitable healthcare isn’t just a hope, but the standard. We’re working toward that future by:

 

  • Expanding services in women’s health, behavioral health, and chronic disease management.

  

  • Deepening community partnerships to bring services where people are, not just where we are.

 

  • Upgrading technology, including smoother scheduling and telehealth support.

  

  • Increasing provider capacity so patients don’t wait weeks for care.

 

  • Advocating for Medicaid expansion and sustainable funding for community-based care.

 

Our dream is big, but our mission is personal: to walk with you through every season of life, with care that meets you where you are.
