“Sandhills Medical Foundation, Inc. is excited about having another quality healthcare presence in a rural community in Chesterfield County. Our mission is to be responsive to community healthcare needs by providing quality, comprehensive, and cost effective healthcare. We started our mission 40 years ago in 1977 in McBee, SC. All of our six locations are certified at the highest level by NCQA as a Patient-Centered Medical home, and we look forward to the town of Ruby site being another. We want to say a big thank you to those that helped bring us to this point, such as Representative Ritchie Yow, Ruby Mayor Keith Bailey, and Ruby Town Council. We also want to thank in advance the people of Ruby, Mt Croghan and surrounding communities that will make this Ruby site their medical home; we look forward to providing to your healthcare needs.\u201d – Chris Dixon, CEO, Sandhills Medical Foundation, Inc.<\/p>\n
