The Portland Community Free Clinic offers free, comprehensive healthcare for adults with limited income who have no insurance and no regular doctor. More than 200 local physicians, nurses, and staff members volunteer their time to make this clinic possible.

The clinic exists because of a unique partnership of community volunteers, Mercy Hospital, and the Public Health Division of the City of Portland's Department of Health and Human Services. The Clinic's staff work closely with Mercy and other health care providers to arrange whatever tests or medical procedures patients require, at no charge.

Many of our specialists volunteer from their own offices in the community for a variety of specialized care:

• Allergy/Asthma/Immunology
• Cardiology
• Dermatology
• Dental
• Endocrinology
• Ear/Nose/Throat
• Gastroenterology
• General Surgery
• Gynecology
• Lipidosis
• Mental Health Counseling
• Neurology
• Opthalmology
• Optometry
• Orthopedics
• Plastic Surgery
• Podiatry
• Proctology
• Psychiatry/Psychology
• Rheumatology
• Urology
