OUR HISTORY
Prism Health Lab is more than just a medical facility- it’s a community. With years of experience since 1988, we couldn’t be prouder of our medical achievements and ability to care deeply for our patients. Read on to see more of our history. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch.
PRISM OPENS FULL MEDICAL PRACTICE IN DEVON
1988
When Prism Medical Center first started, there was one location in the West Side of Chicago helping mainly the minority communities. The center was started by Dr. M.S. Kapadia and his team of doctors to provide excellent care for the communities in this area.
PRISM OPENS IMMIGRATION MEDICAL CENTER
1997
Prism Medical Center shifted to a primarily Immigration Medical Center. With new locations, Prism was able to help thousands of individuals get their medical examinations for immigration. Demand for this paperwork and medical examination was through the roof, so Prism opened 10 new locations and was able to reach people all across the Chicagoland area.
PUBLIC SERVICE
2020
Prism Health Lab (PHL), a subsidiary of a medical practice based in Chicago for over 30 years, was founded at HARVARD Innovation Lab to serve the public during the COVID-19 pandemic. A sense of duty to service compels PHL to become a contributing member of the society through acknowledging the needs of the community.
