💡 Reminder: Insurance Deductibles Reset January 1st

As we head into the new year, it’s important to remember that most insurance plans reset deductibles on January 1st. This means out-of-pocket costs may apply again until your deductible is met.

Our team is happy to help you understand what to expect and answer any questions.

🎉 Happy Birthday, Dr. Miller! 🎉

The staff at Southern Family Medicine wanted to celebrate you in true SFM fashion, with a little fun, a lot of laughter, and some throwback inspiration!

We each picked one of your classic looks from the archives and dressed up like you, from clinic days to fishing trips, we covered it all! 😄

Thank you for being a leader, mentor, and friend who keeps us all inspired (and entertained). We hope your day is filled with the same joy and laughter you bring to our team every day.

In January 2024, Southern Family Medicine in Claxton proudly partnered with The Medical College of Georgia (Augusta University) and HamesNet, a research department named after a prominent physician in Claxton’s history, Dr. Hames, to participate in a groundbreaking research study on elevated blood pressure in rural healthcare and access to medical devices.

📊 In Evans County, an astounding 68.5% of residents aged 30–69 live with a diagnosis of hypertension. Through this partnership, we’ve been able to provide free blood pressure cuffs, along with monthly follow-up calls and monitoring, to help our patients take control of their health and improve long-term outcomes.

This partnership has also expanded to include medical students with an interest in research and rural healthcare from The Medical College of Georgia, who will train at Southern Family Medicine as part of their rural healthcare education, continuing the mission of advancing medical care and research right here in our community.

🏆 We’re honored to share that Southern Family Medicine was selected as the recipient of the 2025 HamesNet CHART Award!
This award recognizes our commitment to improving the health and well-being of Georgia communities through real-world clinical research that directly enhances everyday patient care.

We are deeply grateful to our patients, partners, and community for supporting this important work. Together, we’re making a measurable difference in rural health across Georgia. ❤️
