Revive Integrated Health Center, LLC is a Nurse Practitioner owned and operated health care organization. The organization was established by Dr. Clarissa Lawrence, NP, the owner of Community Health Primary Care Services, LLC, and Dr. Octavia Manuel-Wright, NP the owner of Balanced Mental Health and Wellness, LLC; the two practices have joined to integrate primary care, behavioral health, aesthetics and laboratory services at one location.
After the wake of the pandemic, it was evident that collaboration with primary care and behavioral health was necessary to address healthcare disparities among low-income and vulnerable populations in Milwaukee County. This integrated care model will promote the delivery of effective and efficient care that reflects the comprehensive approach to healthcare needs. Additional benefits of integrated care are increasing access to primary and psychiatric care, providing continuity of care, and improving health care outcomes.
Dr. Clarissa Lawrence is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner specializing in primary care. Dr. Lawrence is a strong patient advocate who believes in meeting patients where they are with their healthcare. Her focus is preventative care, chronic disease management, and weight management. Her overall goal is to decrease the overuse of the emergency department and prevent hospital readmissions. Dr. Lawrence’s purpose is to close the gap in health disparities by providing more access to primary care to improve patients’ overall health.
