Patients older than 65 face a number of health needs that younger patients don't typically have to deal with yet. That's why we've designed Mercy 65 Prime Plus.
Our North County clinic offers a space that's easy to navigate, gentle on the eyes and comfortable for all. Everything from the colors of the walls to the waiting room furniture has been chosen for the benefit of our older patient population.
