“As a member of Independence Center’s Healthcare Home, you will have a diverse and caring team available to help you coordinate and communicate with all your healthcare providers. Because when everyone is working together, you achieve your best health outcomes.”

Free Daily Access to our Fitness Center

Independence Center has a fully-equipped fitness center in our Clubhouse that’s open five days a week for members. This is an accepting, highly encouraging environment where members have access to weight and cardio training, yoga, and a variety of fitness classes. Quality health care requires more than treating health conditions. We believe that by creating a culture of wellness, we inspire healthy lifestyles. We work with you to achieve your wellness goals and encourage a lifetime of wellness. 

“WE ENCOURAGE EVERY MEMBER TO MAKE TIME FOR POSITIVE HEALTH AND FITNESS, AND IT’S MUCH EASIER TO DO WHEN YOU’RE WORKING WITHIN A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY.”
