We’re here to help with all your health needs and concerns.
A primary care provider (PCP) is the first person you go to for health questions and concerns. When you choose one of our PCPs, you form a relationship with someone who knows your history and is here for you, year after year. Your primary care provider is your partner in health through every stage of your life and we’re here to help you find someone just right for you.
“PCPs are generalists who see babies, kids and adult patients for common ailments including respiratory infections, headaches, back pain, rashes and urinary infections,” said Angela Bryant, PA-C, a PCP at SCL Health Medical Group - Westminster. “They also manage chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, anxiety and depression. A PCP can teach you ways to stay healthy, treat you when you are sick, and help you get more advanced care when you need it.”
You should establish care with a PCP who truly listens to your concerns, offers advice and allows you to make decisions regarding your health that you both think are best.
“Even if you have never had a primary care provider, developing a relationship with one now will allow you to reach out to someone who can give advice if you are not feeling well, as well as give you recommendations to keep you healthy for the future,” said Angela.

The City of Westminster offers a reduced-rate program for facility passes and recreation programs to Westminster and Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District residents. Need for financial assistance can be due to medical expenses, loss of job or other hardship. Families/ individuals can enroll by completing a Scholarship/ Reduced Rate application available at any of the city’s recreation facilities.
When a payment received by the City is subsequently returned by the bank, the City assesses a service fee and any other applicable collection charge to the payer. A person may resubmit a dishonored payment by cash, certified check, and when permissible, payment card. However, if a second payment is dishonored by the bank, an additional penalty of thirty dollars ($30) will be assessed in addition to any other charges incurred by the City for the returned payment.

• If you try to create an account online and the system indicates that your address, phone number, email, etc. already exists, this means that you already have an account/household in the system. Please contact any recreation center for assistance.

Early registration is recommended as many classes fill. Classes must reach the minimum enrollment three days prior to the first day of the class or the class is canceled. Participants are notified and transfers, refunds or credits are made.
