Building a Medical Home for the Uninsured - Dr. Marvin Hardy & Stephanie Garris - Grace Medical Home

In this episode of Caring Well, Dr. Michael Middleton sits down with Dr. Marvin Hardy, founder of Grace Medical Home, and CEO Stephanie Garris to explore how a faith-based medical home is transforming healthcare for uninsured families in Central Florida. Together they discuss continuity of care, the social factors that shape health, the role of volunteers and community partnerships, and what it means to care for the whole person - physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The conversation also examines challenges within the healthcare system, the importance of primary care, and how Grace Medical Home has grown into a model of compassionate, integrated care for those who might otherwise fall through the cracks.
