About COPC | Central Ohio Primary Care Physicians Columbus

Our Story

At Central Ohio Primary Care (COPC), we believe that great healthcare starts with strong relationships and a deep commitment to putting patients first.

Founded in 1996 by a group of 33 physicians who shared a passion for quality care, COPC was created to shift the focus away from administrative complexity and back to what matters most: the patient. That founding mission still guides us today.

Now with more than 80 practices and providing care to over 500,000 patients, COPC has grown into the largest physician-owned primary care group in the United States. We’re proud of where we’ve been—but even more excited about where we’re going. At COPC, we’re building a better, more connected way to care for you and your family. Thanks for trusting us with your health. We’re glad you’re here.

When we do these things, we can be the best for our patients, the best for each other, and the Best for Primary Care.

Our Areas of Focus

Clinical Excellence

Clinical excellence is the foundation of our business. However, knowledge, experience, and strong ethical standards are only part of the equation. Being the best for our patients means taking responsibility for the entirety of their care, focusing on education and prevention, and advocating for each patient.

Mindful Service

In order to be the best for our patients, we need to be the best for each other. To do this, we must work together to establish a culture of mindful service and find more ways to build relationships, invest in ourselves and each other, and most importantly, be intentionally kind.

Modernization of Primary Care

The future of primary care is about a better system of care. A model where people come first and the best care and competitive pricing aren’t mutually exclusive. We are leading the nation with a new care delivery process that offers higher quality patient care with greater efficiency and fewer unnecessary costs.
