Eastern Shore Rural Health System, Inc. (ESRHS) is a federally qualified community health center organization. Formed in 1976 by a group of visionaries looking to improve healthcare on the Eastern Shore, we have grown over the past 33 years to become the medical provider of choice for over half the members in our community. We believe that it is every person's right to recieve quality, affordable health care and we are driven by that unifying concept.

What We Do

ESRHS provides medical and dental care to residents of all ages. ESRHS has a staff of 25 medical providers, 5 dentists and 140 support staff. Our centers are equipped with emergency/urgent care treatment rooms, labs and 3 centers offer x-rays. ESRHS remains certified by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations.

ESRHS accepts most major medical and dental insurances. A sliding fee scale is available to patients without insurance coverage or who are underinsured.

In addition to providing primary medical and dental care, as "more than just a doctor's office", ESRHS offers pharmacy assistance, health education, and interpretation services at all our centers, at no cost to our patients. We continue to partner with Accomack County Public Schools to offer dental services on the campuses of two elementary schools. ESRHS was selected by the Chesapeake Bay Bridge & Tunnel (CBBT) Commission to administer a medical toll program, which allows low-income residents with medical referrals free travel to the Hampton Roads area.
