History

[edit]

The Canby Family Practice Clinic (CFPC) was founded in 1987, originally offering limited medical and dental services. Expanded dental and behavioral health services were added later.[2] It moved to its present location, across Hwy 299 from its original site, in 2001 when a new facility was built with supporting funds from the Rural Demonstration Project,[3] the California Wellness Foundation and the California Endowment.[2] A subsequent grant from the Sierra Health Foundation of Sacramento made possible the purchase of state-of-the-art fiber optic hand pieces, a new compressor and dental suite lighting unit.[1]

In 2020, CFPC became part of the Last Frontier Healthcare District.

Disaster preparedness

[edit]

Canby Family Practice Clinic is a member of the Modoc County Disaster Council and the Modoc County Healthcare Coalition. Both of these groups coordinate their resources for unified disaster preparedness in Modoc County.
