The Chief Andrew Isaac Health Center, located in Fairbanks, Alaska, provides comprehensive outpatient health services to Alaska Native and American Indian communities throughout Interior Alaska. Accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), the center is committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care that integrates physical, emotional, and behavioral health.

At the heart of the program are Behavioral Health Consultants (BHCs), who work directly within family practice teams.

Rather than offering traditional psychotherapy, BHCs provide consultation, coping strategies, and brief interventions, with referrals to specialty care available when needed. This integrated approach allows patients to receive timely behavioral health support in coordination with their primary medical care, making Chief Andrew Isaac Health Center a trusted resource for wellness in the Fairbanks region.
The receptionist was great, very upbeat and friendly. Dr. Taylor and her assistant were friendly and competent. I wish there was more time to talk to the doctor and wasn't so rushed. Glad to see you have hired smother doctor to help carry the load.
From the front desk nurses medical staff I feel welcomed safe being here and honest how I feel. Know I won't be judged and that they really care about me and what if anything I need anytime over the phone or face to face ❤️❤️❤️❤️🫶🫶🫶🫶😵💫😵💫😁
I feel very fortunate that I was able to have TMS as a treatment option. I was able to be seen for "extended" therapy. I am using traditional therapy, medication, (used) EMDR and other methods for changes. The aforementioned has improved, but I felt as if it was my final chance to really see changes within myself. When I was essentially told that putting a magnet on my head could help, I though the same thing you are... "Is this electrotherapy of the 1700s and 1800s". Turns out it's slightly different. You aren't having convulsions from electricity, you aren't strapped to a table, you aren't talked to as if you're insane and you aren't going to be a shell of who you were.
This recovery center is the only program out of 4 facilities that I’ve been to that actually helped me. They stood by me when I needed help and then walked with me when I needed guidance on how to stay on a track that progresses forward. I was stabilized and then assured longevity through the program, material, structure, and most importantly, kindness and love. True North Recovery and every single employee that is there holds a very special place in my heart, because through their work, I’ve been gifted a new life- one that I want to be here for
