When we opened our doors, our hope was simple: to create a medical practice where people could receive compassionate, high-quality care and be their authentic selves. Six months later, we are incredibly proud of what we have built together — and profoundly grateful to everyone who has helped make it possible.

In our short time being open we have…

We were voted Best of Orange for Best Medical Group!

Our patient panel has grown to more than 40 patients!

❤️ We continue to welcome patients experiencing financial hardship and offer discounted memberships whenever we are able.

We acquired EKG equipment, allowing us to begin offering preoperative assessments and expand the services we can provide to our patients.

Every one of those milestones represents more than a number or an award. It represents a person who trusted us with their health. A patient who found a place where they felt heard.

That is what Open Arms means to us.

We know that there are still so many people who need accessible, personalized primary care. As we grow, donations to our GoFundMe will help us continue opening our doors to as many patients as possible — particularly those who might otherwise struggle to afford ongoing medical care.

Every donation, no matter the amount, helps us sustain and expand this mission. Your generosity helps us keep providing discounted memberships, invest in equipment and services, and create a practice where financial hardship does not have to mean going without compassionate healthcare.

To everyone who has donated, shared our story, referred a patient, supported us, encouraged us, trusted us with your care, or simply believed in what we were trying to build:

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

We truly cannot express how deeply grateful we are for your support. What started as a dream has become a growing community, and you have helped make that possible.

Here’s to the first six months — and to many more years of keeping our arms open to anyone who needs us. ❤️

With immense gratitude,

Founders Open Arms Primary Care
