Percell had to have his toe amputated at the hospital to avoid gangrene spreading and putting his entire leg at risk before coming to the Hope Clinic. When Purcell was sent to the Hope Clinic he received the care he needed and no longer had to wait for a diabetic emergency to receive care. These diseases are very costly for the community if left untreated because they can  result in catastrophic end stage conditions such as heart attack, renal failure and liver failure. The goal for these patients is to stabilize their care by providing a “medical home” and to avoid unnecessary emergency room visits.

The care that Percell received at the Hope Clinic was made possible through donations from the community. It is crucial that the Hope Clinic receives community support to provide care to the sickest uninsured patients to prevent strain on the community. You’re not just another chart at the Hope Clinic, you’re worth providing Hope to, a life worth saving regardless of your situation. We will treat you with kindness and respect while you are cared for and help you navigate your healthcare needs. 

Percell is one of 8,000 patients whose care we manage. The Hope Clinic’s mission is to provide the very best medical care possible for uninsured patients who have diseases (often multiple diseases) which need, really, an ongoing plan of care and will require medical attention for the rest of their lives.
