About the Organization
Adelante Healthcare's belief in sustainable health care is driven by our commitment to preserve your health, the health of your community and the health of the environment. This belief first took shape 57 years ago in the cotton fields and citrus groves of rural Maricopa County, where a small group of health care professionals formed Clinica Adelante to serve the needs of farm workers in the area. Now known as Adelante Healthcare, we currently operate 8 health centers throughout Maricopa County, Arizona, offering a wide array of services to patients of all economic backgrounds. Adelante Healthcare remains an important part of the Valley's health care safety net as we continue to expand our staff, services and locations. Each of our providers is board certified in disciplines that include dentistry, full-scope ob/gyn, pediatrics, family medicine and internal medicine. Our Health Centers are located in Phoenix, Mesa, Surprise, Wickenburg, Buckeye, Avondale, Gila Bend, and Peoria. Join a team of dedicated health care professionals in a progressive, patient-focused environment where you can apply your skills and training to improving the health of our patients, our communities and the environment around us.
