Health Coaching

Our health hubs are staffed with personal health coaches trained to listen to patients, meet them where they are, and actively engage and guide them towards a targeted health goal. Health coaches not only encourage and support patients along the path to better health but also are a resource for affordable education, classes and support groups, and physician referrals.

 

Connecting to Care

Making appointments with affordable primary care physicians for clients who don’t have a doctor or don’t want to continue with the doctor they have. For clients who lack transportation or have other challenges that keep them from seeing a provider or living healthy, connecting to social services to help address those social needs.

 

Our Free Classes and Support Groups

  • Diabetes self-management education
  • Weight loss and diabetes prevention programs
  • Tobacco cessation counseling and support
  • Cooking classes
  • Workout activities such as group fitness, chair yoga, and line dancing

 

The UTHSC Health Hub – Soulsville location offers these additional services:

  • Primary care for children and adults available two days a week from Medical Director Austin Dalgo, MD
  • Intervention Specialist Services to address student behavioral health needs

The staff at all three UTHSC Health Hubs  look forward to welcoming new clients. We encourage anyone interested in their services to call or stop by any of the three locations.
