The Christ Health Center is a mission outreach of the Church of the Highlands housed in the former Eastern Health Center at 5720 1st Avenue South.

The station and adjacent historic Birmingham Fire Station No. 12 were purchased from the Jefferson County Health Department for $300,000 and an additional $1.7 million was spent on renovations of the two buildings. The health clinic was modernized and re-opened as a medical clinic on March 24, 2009. The fire station was restored to house the church's community outreach missions and opened the following July.

The Christ Health Center is administrated by C. Ramsey Duck.
