At Northland Family Care your health is our primary concern.
Founded in 1935 by Dr. Glenn Hendren and continued on by the late Dr. Richard Bowles, Northland Family Care has been serving Liberty and the surrounding area for over 83 years; we have a deep commitment to our patients and our community. Our practice provides a full spectrum of quality healthcare for your entire family, newborn to elderly.
As our Northland community continues to expand, so does our family of service-oriented medical and administrative professionals. Our staff currently includes two board-certified physicians and six nurse practitioners, as well as a comprehensive nursing staff consisting of RN’s, LPN’s and medical assistants.
Northland Family Care is one of few remaining independent practices that also provide hospital inpatient care. All of our physicians see inpatients at Liberty hospital, ensuring continuity of care and peace of mind for our patients and their families.
Family Medicine is the foundation for you, your family and your community’s health care needs. In addition to treating illnesses, we also provide preventative care services. Furthermore, your Family Medicine provider will help you coordinate care when specialist providers are needed.
We look forward to serving your health care needs, and those of your family. Please call us today at 816-781-4740 to schedule your appointment.

Insurance

In order to file the claim efficiently we will need your current insurance card and photo ID for each visit. For patients who have insurance plans that we do not participate in, we provide an itemized receipt at the time of service for you to file with your insurance carrier.
