About IWS Family Health

IWS Family Health (IWS) is a more than 100-year-old organization, located in Chicago, dedicated to helping children and families grow healthy, strong, and confident by providing trusted, high-quality, coordinated healthcare. At IWS, we envision a community where every child and family thrives with healthy bodies and minds. Our Logan Square location offers full-service care including pediatrics, family medicine, behavioral health, dental services, and more. Our new pediatric site in Dunning extends our reach, and we’re excited to soon open our third location in Belmont Cragin. We recognize that health is not one-dimensional. It’s complex. It’s personal. It involves the body, the mind, the community, and often, social and economic realities that cannot be ignored. That’s why we’ve embraced an integrated approach that meets children and families where they are—one that blends complementary healthcare services into a coordinated, person-centered model of care for better outcomes.
