History
Established in 1997. In 1997, Dr. Myron and Joyce Glick opened the doors of Jericho Road Family Practice at 184 Barton Street on Buffalo's West Side, to provide excellent medical care to all who came, regardless of ability to pay. In 2004 and 2018, Jericho Road Family Practice opened additional medical centers on Genesee Street (now closed) and Broadway, in order to serve more patients who previously had limited access to quality medical care. The Glicks recognized the connection between physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Providing excellent medical care was not enough, but a medical practice with limited resources could not do any more. So, as an expression of the heart behind the medical services, Jericho Road Ministries (JRM) was born. Founded in 2003, the ministry sought to fight poverty at its roots by addressing the non-medical needs of the community. In September 2013, the two organizations merged into one 501(c)3 organization: Jericho Road Community Health Center.
