Who We Are
The Clearwater Free Clinic is a volunteer driven non-profit, non-government medical facility that provides problem-oriented, primary health care to the low-income uninsured population living in Clearwater and surrounding communities.
The Clinic’s committed volunteer team of physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists, and office clerks donate thousands of hours of medical services each year. Our community partners, Morton Plant and Mease Hospitals donate goods and services.
Working together we are able to offer the highest quality medical care possible in a caring and non-judgmental atmosphere. 
The medical services provided through the Clearwater Free Clinic enable our patients to lead healthier and more productive lives, which in turn has a positive impact on their families and our community.
Who We Serve
Medical care is made available to uninsured adults and children living in our community who are not eligible for government programs and cannot afford private medical care. The majority of the patients at the Clearwater Free Clinic are hard working people with limited incomes or low paying jobs. Their income excludes them from receiving government assisted programs yet prohibits their ability to afford private healthcare or insurance.
Without the aid of the Clearwater Free Clinic, the uninsured often look to our local emergency rooms for non-emergent care at a great cost to themselves and the hospitals. More upsetting is that many of the uninsured ignore significant health problems until a crisis occurs for fear of incurring debt. This where the Clearwater Free Clinic is able to help.
