Health and Wellness

 

🧠 Mental Health Matters 💙
Your mind needs care just like your body.
Stress, anxiety, depression — they are not signs of weakness, but signals that deserve attention and support.

💬 It’s okay not to be okay.
You are not alone. Reach out, talk to someone, and take that first step toward healing.

Let’s break the stigma — because mental health is health.

 


Our Community Cares

At Purdy Medical Clinic, community care goes beyond our walls.

We are proud to support the efforts of our local community resources — from health and wellness programs, to food banks, to organizations that provide education, safety, and support for families.

When we work together, we build a stronger, healthier community for everyone. Cooperation between individuals, local businesses, and community organizations ensures that help is available when it’s needed most.

Together, we can make a lasting impact. 💙
