History
Dr. Henry C. White was a health care pioneer in Fort Walton Beach. In 1946, he opened the first doctor's office in a house on Brooks Street. He and his family lived upstairs so he could be on call 24hrs a day. Dr. White recognized there was a need for expansion to provide complete care for his patients, and included a laboratory, diagnostic x-ray, surgery and a few hospital beds to his clinic. In 1952, his medical school classmate and friend, Dr. Joseph C. Wilson, joined Dr. White and the White-Wilson Medical Center was formed. In 1977, the clinic built a facility on Mar Walt Drive, which operates as the main campus for White-Wilson Medical Center today. Over the following years, satellite practices opened in Crestview, Destin, Niceville, Navarre and DeFuniak Springs. White-Wilson is the largest primary care provider in the area of Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics and Immediate Care, and is committed to meeting the community's need for quality health care.
