Shoreline Family Medicine

This independent medical practice was established by Dr. Powell in 2001 with the goal of providing quality medical care for the residents of Norton Shores and its' surrounding communities along the shoreline.

While pursuing excellence in medical services, we have also succeeded in creating a Patient Centered Medical Home for individuals, young families and grandparents.
