Rome Health Primary Care has welcomed a new physician to its practice located in the medical center on the hospital’s main campus. Elizabeth Cooley is board certified in family medicine and is accepting new adult patients. She provides primary care.
Cooley earned her medical degree from the University of Vermont College of Medicine and completed her residency in family medicine at St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center in Syracuse in 2010. She has been practicing in the Mohawk Valley for more than 12 years with experience in urgent care, women’s health, family medicine and long-term care.
“Having a primary care doctor you feel comfortable with can be critical to your well-being,” said Cooley. “Patients are more likely to be open about their physical and mental health needs with someone they trust.”
Since the medical center opened in November 2022, Rome Health has been expanding access to primary care for the community. The primary care practice now has a team of five doctors and five nurse practitioners on the hospital’s main campus, with access to X-ray and pharmacy on site.
