San José Clinic, one of the oldest and most premier charity clinics in the United States, provides primary and specialty medical care, dental, pharmacy and laboratory services to nearly 4,000 uninsured, low-income patients annually. Our goal is to be the healthcare home for the Greater Houston area.
More than 1.1 million, one in every three, persons in the Houston/Harris County area lack health insurance. The demand for low-cost care in this area is consistently greater than available community resources. Primary healthcare for the uninsured is grossly inadequate, and specialty care is almost non-existent. Because of the Clinic's extensive use of volunteer physicians, other community volunteers and teaching affiliations, patients are able to access quality healthcare in a single convenient setting.
