About Bee Busy Wellness Center
Bee Busy Wellness Center (BBWC) is a non-profit, community-based health center that initiated clinical services in 2010 and attained the designation of a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in 2013. Initially operating from a three-exam-room medical facility in Southwest Houston, BBWC embarked on its strategic plan for expansion in 2014. By 2015, the flagship location on West Bellfort Ave in Southwest Houston was established, boasting 11 exam rooms, comprehensive radiology and X-ray services, five dental exam suites, two mental health/psychiatry rooms, and two labs.
Continuing its growth, BBWC expanded its reach in 2018, establishing two additional locations throughout Harris County. The journey from a modest three-exam-room facility to a comprehensive health center with multiple locations underscores BBWC’s commitment to community health and well-being
Our Mission
At BBWC, our mission is to offer a medical home to all, free from stigma and discrimination, regardless of the ability to pay. We strive to bridge the gaps in healthcare and ensure that every individual receives the high-quality care they deserve.
Our Core Values: ICARE
- Integrity: Upholding the highest standards of honesty and ethical behavior.
- Commitment: Dedication to our patients, staff, and community.
- Accountability: Responsibility for our actions and outcomes.

What Sets Us Apart

Additionally, we hold Federal Public Health Services (PHS) deemed status, which extends to specific health or health-related claims, including medical malpractice claims, for both the organization and its covered individuals.
