West Plains Christian Clinic offers basic medical care, psychological and spiritual counseling.   As funds and volunteers become available, we hope to add dental care.  (For additional dental information please scroll down to end of page.) 

The Clinic is completely staffed by volunteers with one grant funded director's possition.  With this in mind, not all of the above services may be available at all times.   Patients are encouraged to call in advance to determine which services are available during a specific clinic session. 

We do not make appointments.  Persons are seen based upon their medical need.  Unfortunately, due to the limited number of volunteers and available resources, we cannot guarantee that all persons requesting service during a clinic session will be seen.
