Ensuring No One's Health Gets Left Behind
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Traverse Health Clinic provides high-quality health care to the region while serving those who might otherwise go without access to the care they need. We remain true to our roots as a strong primary care safety net and never turn anyone away because of inability to pay. We aim to make health care accessible to every person in our community -- particularly those who are often overlooked and under-served.
