Healthy Food is Medicine

The right food can do more than satisfy your hunger. It can help manage chronic conditions, improve your health, and support your treatment plan.

Through Food Rx, Evara Health connects eligible patients with fresh produce, healthy pantry staples, and medically appropriate meals because better health starts with having the resources to nourish your body.

"I needed to see a doctor & had just lost my insurance. I went to 5 different places (walk ins) that were kind. But, they couldn't help me. One receptionist told me about Evara. By the time I walked in I was exhausted and never thought I'd see a doctor. But, it was just the opposite at Evara. I can't speak highly enough about every single employee. From the woman at the front desk to the doctors who saw me. Everyone was kind and helpful. If you don't have insurance, make sure to bring in your W2/tax return, pay stub or something that shows you might qualify for their program. It goes so much smoother & I'm sure they appreciate it as well."
