First Black-owned women’s health center opens on Jacksonville’s Westside

A new women’s health care clinic has opened on Jacksonville’s Westside.

Life Tree Women Care is the first Black-owned women’s health center of its kind in Northeast Florida, according to clinic founders Derek and Jamie Neal.

“Too many women on the Westside lack access to effective and affordable care,” explained Jamie Neal. “We want to change that while prioritizing healthcare services for all women with both quality and cultural competence. We hope the community will come out to support us at our grand opening events as we strive to spread the word about accessibility to our women’s health services across Jacksonville and the surrounding areas.”

The founders say LTWC will offer culturally competent and safe care through preventative medical services, such as well health checks, vaccinations, management of chronic conditions, maternity care for low-risk pregnant women, and a place for support groups.
