Re-developing a Family Practice Website

simple-ipad-pro-mockup-23619 (10).png

Overview:

As a web developer, I volunteered to create a new website for Main Center Family Medicine, a small family practice in Northville, Michigan, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The previous website had been hacked and rendered useless, so I stepped in to build a functional and visually appealing site that would enable the practice to communicate important updates to patients, such as changes in office hours due to the pandemic. Using WordPress as the content management system and the Divi Builder for easy customization, I created a user-friendly website with backend access and a pop-up message feature. I also provided guidance and training to the office manager, who had little web design experience, on making changes to the site using the Divi Builder and third-party widgets like Icegram.
