Kansas City CARE Clinic

I am surprised how many people I talk to in Kansas City who don’t know about this place. Bring your 2 latest paycheck stubs and a utility bill as proof of income & residence and you will see a doctor by simply donating a whopping $ 10!
So, what does «see a doctor’ mean exactly? It doesn’t mean what you think. For $ 10 you’d think you’re going to have a Health Department type experience. Nope! Not even close. This place operates like a normal doctors office. You are not treated like a number here. It’s just like going to see your trusted family doctor. You can even open an account for their online portal and make appointments. Dental and Behavioral Health services are also available
They offer free HIV and hepatitis testing as well as flu shots. They have a pharmacy and blood lab on site.
God bless the people behind this facility and the services they offer. This is one of the top gems in the KC community. I truly feel comfortable going here and the staff and services can be trusted.

Formally KC Free Health Clinic, I have only dealt with KC Care Clinic for the yearly free HIV testing they provide on National HIV testing day. The drive helps to remind people of knowing their status which is probably one of the most important things to help stop the spread of HIV/​AIDS. After losing a loved one to AIDS related illnesses, this is a very important message for me to spread.
KC Care Clinic offers the rapid response test that produces results within 15 minutes. Along with the HIV testing, they also offer basic health services to people who are unable to pay for these services or currently without insurance. Along with care they provide education to help people know how to prevent different health issues and how to take care of themselves if they have particular health issues.
This is a very important place in the community and the work they do is amazing. Everyone I have encountered has been exceptionally friendly, and project that they really care about the community and the communities health.
The young man that did my testing today at the Walgreens location down the street was a great representation of the clinic.
