Orchard Park Family Practice P.C. is proud to announce its highest level recognition from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) for Physician Practice Connections-Patient Centered Medical Home. This prestigious acknowledgment highlights Orchard Park Family Practice’s commitment to providing exceptional, patient-focused healthcare.
The Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model emphasizes a partnership between patients, their personal physicians, and when appropriate, their families and other healthcare specialists. Orchard Park Family Practice utilizes this model to ensure patients receive coordinated and comprehensive care. By leveraging registries, health information technology, and health information exchange, the practice ensures that patients receive the right care, at the right time, and in the most appropriate setting. This patient-centric approach is delivered in a manner that is both culturally and linguistically sensitive to meet the diverse needs of the Orchard Park community.
Embracing the PCMH concept allows Orchard Park Family Practice to move beyond simply treating illnesses or injuries as they arise. Instead, the practice focuses on building long-term, care-coordinated, and preventative relationships with patients. This proactive approach fosters a sense of trust and security, assuring patients that Orchard Park Family Practice is deeply invested in their ongoing health and well-being. The NCQA recognition further validates the practice’s dedication to continuous improvement and patient care excellence.
Orchard Park Family Practice is also excited to welcome Jill Kaczmarek, FNP, to their growing team. Joining as a Family Nurse Practitioner on November 4th, Jill brings a wealth of experience to the practice and will be available for appointments starting in December. Jill graduated Summa Cum Laude from D’Youville University, earning both her Bachelor of Science in Nursing and Master of Science in Family Nurse Practitioner in 2000. With 25 years of experience in Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine, Jill is a highly skilled and compassionate provider. Her commitment to the profession is further demonstrated by her induction into the Sigma Theta Tau Honor Society and her past presidency of the Western New York Chapter of NAPNAP Association. As a lifelong resident of Western New York, Jill is deeply connected to the community and passionate about providing excellent healthcare close to home. Outside of her professional life, Jill enjoys fitness, travel, fashion, and cosmetic injections.
Adding to the team’s expertise, Orchard Park Family Practice is also thrilled to welcome Mandy Abram, PA, as a new Physician Assistant. Mandy joined the practice on October 14th and will be available to see patients beginning in November. Mandy is also a Summa Cum Laude graduate of Daemen University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Health Science/Master of Science and Physician Assistant Studies in 2011.

As a mother of four, Mandy understands the importance of family health and values an active lifestyle.
Please join Orchard Park Family Practice in extending a warm welcome to both Jill and Mandy. They are valuable additions to the practice and further strengthen Orchard Park Family Practice’s commitment to providing comprehensive and patient-centered medical care to the Orchard Park community and beyond.
