This “one-stop-shop” ensures barrier-free access and provides a multi-service healthcare home for children and families in Chicago and the surrounding areas.

Orthodontic care was introduced in 1991 and pediatric optometry in 1995. In 2015, we launched the Child-Centered Health and Advanced Therapies (CHAT) Center, for children at risk for developmental delays. IWS Family Health services are: - trusted by our patients. Word-of-mouth referrals are strong, and many families have received care for multiple generations. - provided in a state-of-the-art facility. The Angel Harvey Family Health Center in Logan Square is a modern, clean, LEED Silver Certified 40,000 square foot building. - always expanding to best meet the needs of our patients. New and improved services and programs are a hallmark of our commitment to wraparound services. - accessible to all. Our convenient location, culturally sensitive staff, and sliding fee scales reduce barriers to critical care. Our Vision: IWS Family Health envisions a community of children and families with healthy bodies and minds. Our Mission: Our mission is to provide a continuum of integrated, quality, and preventive health care services to children and their families, enabling them to lead healthy and productive lives.

    June is Men’s Health Month! Our friends at Blue Cross Blue Shield remind us that specific health challenges affect men’s health and wellness. Here are three ways men can manage hypertension and decrease their risk of developing diabetes, two of the greatest risk factors for men's health: 🙋♂️Monitor blood pressure. Men with high blood pressure are encouraged to lower it to about 120/80. 🙋♂️Get adequate sleep. Not getting enough hours of nighttime rest can contribute to higher blood sugar levels. Getting adequate sleep nightly, seven to nine hours is recommended. 🙋♂️Manage diabetes. Keeping blood sugar in a healthy range may require some modifications with diet and exercise, but it is well worth it for a lifetime of health. Don’t wait... make your health a priority for TODAY! ☎️ 773.782.2800 #MensHealthMonth #ChicagoMensHealth #ChicagoHealthcare – ¡Junio es el Mes de la Salud de los Hombres! Nuestros amigos de Blue Cross Blue Shield nos recuerdan que los desafíos específicos de salud afectan la salud y el bienestar de los hombres. Aquí hay tres maneras en que los hombres pueden manejar la hipertensión y disminuir su riesgo de desarrollar diabetes, dos de los mayores factores de riesgo para la salud de los hombres: 🙋♂️ Controlar la presión arterial. Se anima a los hombres con presión arterial alta a bajarla a aproximadamente 120/80. 🙋♂️Duerma adecuadamente. No tener suficientes horas de descanso nocturno puede contribuir a niveles más altos de azúcar en la sangre. Dormir adecuadamente todas las noches, se recomienda de siete a nueve horas. 🙋♂️Controlar la diabetes. Se anima a los hombres a hacerse sus chequeos anuales para conocer sus números. Mantener el azúcar en la sangre en un rango saludable puede requerir algunas modificaciones con la dieta y el ejercicio, pero vale la pena para toda la vida de salud. No esperes... ¡Haz de tu salud una prioridad para HOY! #IWSFamilyHealth
