American Family Care

Dr. Bruce Irwin opened the first American Family Care® in 1982, making it the first urgent care, family care, and primary care practice in Birmingham, Alabama. The philosophy of 'putting the patient first' has made AFC one of the most successful urgent care clinics in the area, expanding to over 200 facilities across 26 states. AFC treats nearly three million patients a year and aims to have more than 500 clinics nationwide in the next five years. Their mission is to provide the best healthcare possible in a kind and caring environment while respecting the rights of all patients, at times and locations convenient to them.
