Primary care in south-central Indiana

Your primary care provider plays a critical role in your everyday health. They get to know you and are ready to provide highly skilled care when you need it most. Some of our primary care offices offer extended hours, or virtual visits. Please contact your primary care office for more information, or visit our website.

We also offer walk-in hours at some of our locations, immediate access providers, and urgent care locations, in case you are not able to see your primary care provider as soon as you’d prefer.

Our team has worked hard to change our care model and recruit additional primary care providers. Not only has our access improved, but you can also now schedule your appointment online whether you are a new or existing patient.

What is an IAP and when do you use them?

Immediate Access Providers (IAPs) are providers whose schedules are kept open to be able to fulfill same-day or next-day appointments.

IAPs are found at the following Southern Indiana Physicians Family & Internal Medicine locations:

In addition to your primary care offices, we have walk-in hours at some of our locations. Appointments are not necessary, and you may utilize these visits for sick appointments, urgent needs (such as medication refills), and more.
