Avance Care

Avance Care runs primary care practices across the Raleigh-Durham area, Charlotte and Wilmington, including this one on World Trade Boulevard in northwest Raleigh. The practices see children, teens and adults, so a whole family can be looked after in one place.

The idea behind it was to bring urgent-care convenience and hospitality-style attention into an ordinary doctor’s office, using technology to keep visits efficient and costs down. That thinking runs through the whole group, which has grown into a repeatable model of comprehensive primary care across the state.
