Our stepped-up series continues as we celebrate and spotlight our valued employees' outstanding work and compassion. This week, we’re focusing on Haney Wahba, MD, who is one of our family medicine providers at our Jacksonville Family Medicine Center. A patient recently commented:

“I would go nowhere else. Mom and I love and trust Dr Wahba. He practices medicine the way everyone wishes it were practiced. You are not a number. You are a patient. He “knows” you and your family. He does not make it feel like a business arrangement. His staff is equally kind. I have been in medicine myself for over 30 years, and I am astounded by the care received from this practice”.

Thank you, Dr. Wahba, for your dedication to our patients and the Community Health Center mission! For more information on the Primary Health Network and our services, please visit primary-health.net.

Giving Tuesday is December 2, 2025, but you don’t have to wait to make an impact. PHN Charitable Foundation is excited to share that early giving opens on November 25, 2025, which gives donors a full week to support this year’s campaign. Click below to donate early!

This year marks a special milestone for the Primary Health Network Charitable Foundation (PHNCF), 20 years of service to their communities. As they celebrate two decades of impact, their 2025 Giving Tuesday campaign is centered on a cause that shapes the future of every child: early literacy.

Strong reading skills start early, and those first few years are critical to lifelong success. Early literacy is more than just learning to read; it is about nurturing curiosity, communication, and confidence from the very beginning.

At PHNCF, they are continuing to invest in programs that help families create language-rich environments where children can grow, learn, and thrive.

Mark your calendar for December 2, 2025, Giving Tuesday. Your support helps ensure that every child has the opportunity to read, learn, and succeed.
