Because Health Is More Than Healthcare - and Together, We Can Change the Story

At Hunter Health, we know healthcare doesn’t start in an exam room.

It starts with ACCESS, with STABILITY, with DIGNITY.

The Community Wellness Center is our bold response to what our community needs most – bringing healthcare, prevention, and essential support services together under one roof to address the broader social drivers of health.

This is where lasting change begins.

  • We work with patients to provide the individualized care and support that works for them.
  • With your support, we can reach more patients and empower them to take control of their wellbeing.

Your donation is not just a one-time solution. It allows us to provide care, build facilities, and support programs that impact our community now and well into the future.

Care That Creates a Healthier Community

Why It Matters

In Wichita, too many individuals and families delay care – not by choice, but because of barriers like cost, transportation, and lack of access to preventive services. The result is worse health outcomes, higher costs, and unnecessary strain on families and the healthcare system.

Be Part of the Change

The Community Wellness Center is more than a building.
It’s a commitment to transforming health in Wichita – today and for generations to come.

Your investment helps ensure that everyone – regardless of income or circumstance, has the opportunity to live a healthy, stable life.

Hunter Health is transforming the corner of Central and Grove in Wichita to become a destination for better health. The Community Wellness Center creates more space to enhance services for our current patients and serves the entire community by offering health and wellness education programs that address lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise, and managing chronic disease.

The Community Wellness Center will provide:

  • Health education center addressing financial literacy, workforce readiness, and more
  • Demonstration kitchen for nutrition and cooking classes
  • Additional clinical services, such as physical and occupational therapy 
  • Targeted fitness programming and equipment for pain reduction and other wellness needs
  • Child education space for parents accessing clinic and/or Wellness Center services.
  • Enhanced walkability and flow with an enclosed inner loop
  • Access to nature and green space including a courtyard, open spaces, and a community plaza

“Hunter Health’s goal for the Community Wellness Center is to improve the overall health and wellbeing of our entire community, giving people the opportunity to thrive in body, mind, and spirit.”

— Amy Feimer, Chief Executive Officer

Hunter Health believes when everyone is treated with quality care, our communities become healthier and stronger together. Embracing every patient where they are — financially, geographically, and in all aspects of their health — lifts us all. Among those we serve are patients who tend to be the most vulnerable and underserved in our community.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about Hunter Health, please call or email Amy Feimer, CEO, at amy.feimer@hunterhealth.org or 316.491.7611 to discuss how you can support this exciting project. No gift is too small.

Mike’s Story

Empowering Patients to Thrive

When Mike arrived for his dental appointment, he had no idea it would start with a blood-pressure check, but he was thankful it did. Mike had been irritable for weeks but was unaware that elevated blood pressure was the cause. When he was told his elevated blood pressure would delay dental treatment, it added to his stress and anxiety. Our ability to offer Mike immediate access to behavioral health services turned frustration and disappointment into gratitude.

Jackie’s Story

Care that Creates a Better Community

When Jackie came to Hunter Health with symptoms linked to high blood pressure, she had no idea she was in a hypertensive crisis. In fact, her blood pressure was so high that medication wasn’t bringing it down quickly enough. Instead of calling 911 to transport Jackie to the emergency room, her medical provider called one of Hunter Health’s behavioral health consultants — saving Jackie an expensive ER bill and helping manage overall healthcare costs.
