Coleman founded a two-story multi-specialty medical center located at the corner of Third Street and Ingerson Avenue in the Bayview district of San Francisco. This building, which is commonly referred to as the Arthur H. Coleman Medical Center, has been a cornerstone for medical services in the community for over a half century. In the tradition of Dr. Coleman and those other professionals who worked so hard to bring quality services to the Bayview, the center continues on with a new group of health care providers who are carrying the torch.

Dr. Coleman’s daughter, Pat, who serves as the executive director of the center, is dedicated to recruiting health providers to serve the community. She recently took the opportunity to introduce two outstanding doctors, Dr. Catherine Sanders and Dr. Ronald D. Mitchell, who are the latest additions to the medical center’s staff.

Dr. Sanders specializes in internal medicine and completed a three-year fellowship in hematology and oncology. She has quickly become quite popular among the patients because of her reassuring manner and her knack for really listening. Quite a few of her patients suffer from hypertension, diabetes and heart disease and she works with them to help manage their illnesses and keep them under control.
