Overview

Our site offers services to the Greater Richmond Area, and our goal is to provide access to different treatment options to our patients. Virginia Research Center was founded by an experienced team of health care professionals to enhance patient services at the private practice clinic of Aaron N. Hartman, M.D. at Family Practice Associates. Establishing a clinical research site within the private practice has allowed for uninterrupted day-to-day clinic operations while simultaneously performing clinical research studies. The Virginia Research Center supports advancement of medical treatment options while ensuring the human rights of participants are protected during the trial process. Our Standard Operating Procedures are aligned with CFR, ICH and GCP guidelines.
