La Casa Family Health Center is a non-profit organization that provides primary and preventative medical, dental, and pharmaceutical services within the Southeast region of New Mexico. La Casa de Buena Salud was established in 1970 by a group of concerned women dedicated to addressing the lack of accessible and affordable prenatal care services in Portales, NM. These women came together and organized and operated La Casa from a tiny two-bedroom home.
La Casa Family Health Center has provided community healthcare for over 50 years! Our health centers are staffed with seasoned medical providers.
Our rich history within the community is our bond. Our local ties ground us and motivate our health clinics to continue to provide the highest quality healthcare our patients deserve.
We’ve continued to grow and expand our locations throughout New Mexico, but are humbled by the opportunity to serve so many.
