Reason #1: Serve and Employ a Diverse Community


Natasha from our Main Clinic notes,

“I love the diverse community we serve and employ at Bluestem Health Family Medicine Clinics.”

Becoming a part of the Bluestem Health team, means that we are committed to being the leading resource for all patients in the Lincoln area.

Reason #2: We See Many Types of Patients and Medical Conditions


“Our family medicine clinics see a variety of conditions in our patients which allows us to continue learning and growing as a family medicine provider.”

Because we are working with families with patients of all ages, on any given day we see a wide range of medical conditions in all of our patients. From colds to diabetic education, we are able to treat our patients through our medical expertise as family medicine providers.

Reason #3: Cultivate Lasting Relationships with Families

As a family medicine provider, we are able to establish relationships with our patients, and become integrated into the health and well-being of entire families. At Bluestem Health, our patients get to know us both personally and as a family medicine provider.

“Because we are a family medicine clinic, we get the privilege of seeing patients through so many important milestones in their lives,” adds Rebecca from our Health 360 Clinic.

Health 360 is a partnership between Lutheran Family Services of Nebraska and Bluestem Health. We offer comprehensive family medicine for all ages, behavioral health, addiction and substance use services, pharmacy, laboratory services, and dental hygiene services.

To us, family medicine care is like following the patient over their lifespan. By participating in our patients’ lives, we have the privilege as a family medicine clinic to be the main source of medical advice and treatment for patients of all ages over the span of their lives.

Reason #4: Be Our Patients’ Helping Hand


“I am constantly learning, not just from my job but from the patients. Everyone has a story, and I love that we have the opportunity to be our patients’ helping hand,” Holly at our Piedmont Clinic says.

Our Bluestem Health Piedmont Clinic offers comprehensive family medicine and laboratory services for all ages.

As mentioned earlier, we are grateful for the opportunity to be constantly learning in a family medicine environment, and it’s not just our job, it’s also from our patients. As family medicine providers, we love to assist our patients and develop the relationships that allow them to trust our medical expertise and services.
