I have been a volunteer at the Flint Hills Community Clinic since 2009. As a family nurse practitioner, I see individuals of all ages for primary care needs. From diabetes management to colds and sore throats, the Flint Hills Community Clinic has provided high quality care to the uninsured in the Manhattan community for over a decade.
Although the clinic does have policies in place to verify income to assure that individuals with the most need are receiving these free services, I have witnessed the staff at The Flint Hills Community Clinic work tirelessly to assure that those who qualify for these services receive them in a timely manner.
Working with local partners, the Flint Hills Clinic has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in free medication, specialty consultations, medical equipment, and primary care services to countless individuals.
I look forward to the continued effort of the Flint Hills Community Clinic in their mission to provide primary care to those in need. I wish all of the patients, staff, and volunteers a wonderful holiday season, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year.
May our 2019 be even better and may the services that we provide continue to touch the lives of so many.
