In America’s health care system, it isn’t always easy to navigate the path to wellness with the red tape and insurance hassles that pop up along the way. But in an effort to allow you to focus on your well-being is Anchor Wellness Center.
“Anchor Wellness Center is an integrated health and wellness collaborative that aims to inspire well-being by aligning with client-centric, collaborative, and specialized care providers inside one central network and absent from insurance companies regulating individuals’ care,” explains Achor Wellness Center Founder Dr. Sarah Cash Crawford. “We strive to be a place where individuals can get the care they need and want without jumping through hoops or bureaucratic red tape.”
Ultimately, the inspiration behind Anchor Wellness Center comes down to hope. “Hope that people can be well and heal,” says Crawford. “Hope that they won’t need to rely on medical care forever. Traditional healthcare is siloed and reactive. Our providers are here to meet clients where they are, listen intently, and guide them toward their goals based on expertise, knowledge, and collaboration.”
Crawford launched Anchor Wellness Center in 2019, after working for years as a specialist in chronic and persistent pain as a physical therapist. It was during this time that she realized she wanted to help others be well and realize that daily discomfort doesn’t have to be permanent. She wanted to break down the barriers in traditional medicine and offer something that would reduce the time and space between an individual’s care providers to maximize efficiency and effectiveness.
At Anchor Wellness Center, there are a variety of services available including physical therapy, nutrition, health and wellness coaching, massage therapy, Pilates, yoga, and strength training. There are also a number of providers that Anchor Wellness Center is connected with outside of the network for referrals in other specialties such as mental health, medical, and value-based specialty practices.
When asked what makes Anchor Wellness Center unique, Crawford says that it’s the way clients are able to access care. “We believe most individuals have a gut-sense of the care they need and we trust them,” she says. “We champion clients who want to get better. Because of that, we pride ourselves on being a one-stop shop. Our centralized, online scheduling tool is what allows clients to access the care they want when they want it. Additionally, they don’t have to be the transporter of information because our network and its systems allow the providers to collaborate without the presence of the client.”
Anchor Wellness Center will continue to offers its unique approach to clients, and is currently preparing to expand corporate wellness initiatives. “We’ll be bringing concierge-like medicine and knowledge to the workplace, supporting employers who are looking to add value to their greatest assets – their people,” she says.
Anchor Wellness Center is located in Kenwood, in the 8044 Building (formerly the Towers of Kenwood). It is at the intersection of I-71 and Montgomery Road, across from the Kenwood Town Center.
