A⁤ Memphis Organization Providing Affordable ⁢Healthcare for All

The Crosstown ⁤Concourse in Midtown Memphis houses a $40 walk-in clinic at Church Health. This clinic, located in Crosstown Concourse’s West Wing, is a part of a 150 thousand square feet complex.⁤ It aims to provide affordable healthcare for​ every working person, regardless of their insurance ⁤status.

Church Health, a non-profit faith-based health‌ care organization, is the brainchild of Dr. Scott Morris. His dedication as an ordained minister and ‌doctor ⁣has led⁢ to the establishment of ‌this clinic in 1987. Dr. ⁣Morris is committed to ensuring that hard-working Memphians have access to critical health care, especially for those ‍without insurance.

The clinic consists of 54 exam rooms spread across two ⁤floors ⁤and operates ⁤with ‌the help of⁣ a thousand volunteer physicians. These doctors offer⁣ free medical services to Church Health patients, further augmented by the hospital’s charity programs that help patients pay very little or ​no cost at all for their treatment.

The clinic primarily services underserved individuals who⁤ would otherwise‌ struggle to access healthcare facilities. According to Dr. Morris, the mission⁤ of Church Health is a testament​ to what is possible in God’s imagination.

Church Health⁣ offers an opportunity for everyone to⁣ contribute to their cause.⁣ WREG is partnering with the organization for Giving Day on July 30th. All contributions will be matched dollar-for-dollar,⁣ up to $100,000. Participants ⁢can donate to provide ‌protective equipment for dental appointments, care for patients with broken bones, treatment for a patient’s diabetes, or operate the clinic lab.
