Our story…
Whole Family Health Center (WFHC) is a non-profit community healthcare organization serving the Treasure Coast for over 25 years. WFHC offers an integrated approach to healthcare providing access to Adult & Pediatric Primary Care, Behavioral Health, and a Pharmacy with delivery services, all under one roof. WFHC strives to be a healthcare home for all members of the community, whether they are full or part-time residents.
WFHC began in Fort Pierce as the ‘AIDS Research and Treatment Center of the Treasure Coast’ (ARTCTC), founded by Dr. Gerald Pierone, an Infectious Disease Specialist. Dr. Pierone serves as our Chief Medical Officer, overseeing all clinical initiatives and directing our infectious disease program, including our COVID-19 response. Today, WFHC remains the leader on the Treasure Coast for the care and treatment of HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, and STIs.
Whole Family Health Center’s collaborative relationships with community leaders, hospitals, physicians, and the patients we serve, enable us to better meet the needs of our community and we look forward to exciting opportunities to expand our services to those who need us most. With state-of-the-art clinical offices in Vero Beach and Fort Pierce, our team of medical professionals is committed to delivering compassionate, quality care to all!
During the pandemic, Whole Family Health Center established itself as a proven leader in our community for the testing, treatment, and vaccination of COVID-19 by offering drive-up testing, weekend vaccine clinics, and the only dedicated Monoclonal Antibody Treatment Center in Vero Beach. Through our research arm, The Pierone Research Institute, we also partnered with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to participate in clinical trials.
