Addyston Health Center, Tracy Tiller, MD, Director
The Addyston Health Center is one of four pediatric clinics in Cincinnati that evolved from "milk stations" which began during the early part of the 20th century. These milk stations distributed safe milk to the poor of Cincinnati to combat the high death rates due to dysentery. With the availability of refrigeration, pasteurization and infant formula, these milk stations evolved into pediatric clinics (The Babies Milk Fund) to serve a similar population.
The Addyston Health Center is located in a western suburb of Cincinnati and serves a rural, Appalachian population. About half of the patients receive Medicaid, one fourth are self pay and one fourth are insured. Both family medicine and pediatric services are provided daily including Saturday mornings. The center sees about 1,300 pediatric patients per year.
