PHOENIX, Ariz. (03/15/2019) – Douglas Guffey has been named to the Board of Directors of NOAH – Neighborhood Outreach Access to Health
Guffey, a healthcare attorney and partner at Jaburg Wilk, said “My career has been centered on working with doctors and medical facilities. This is a great opportunity to support a non-profit that provides medical care to uninsured, underinsured and underserved patients who have no other access to quality care.”
Growing out of the Sunnyslope Desert Mission health center established in the 1930s by Helen Lincoln, wife of John C. Lincoln, NOAH in its present form as a Federally-Qualified Health Center has been serving North Phoenix, Central Phoenix, and Scottsdale since 1997. The Health Center has evolved from a single pediatric nurse practitioner traveling from school to school to eight fixed health centers located in low-income areas, providing access to quality primary medical, dental and behavioral health services to more than 23,000 children and adults per year. NOAH helps all in need of care, regardless of ability to pay.
