Our History

The Upper Ohio Valley Individual Practice Association (The IPA) was formed in 1979 by a group of physicians whose goal was to provide health care services at a cost reasonable to both patients and physicians.

Our Purpose

The IPA is an independent practice association which has as its primary objective the delivery of high-quality, coordinated, efficient, and cost saving medical care to patients within the Ohio Valley and surrounding area.

Our Physicians
