When I saw some information about a free, pop-up health clinic in Amarillo this weekend, I had to invite the organizer onto High Plains Morning. Thanks so much to Pastor Bobby Harris of Seventh Day Adventist Church for stopping by to talk about the Jumpstart Free Health Clinic, coming to town this Sunday, August 25th from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm CT. It’s being held at 3 Angels Community Center (405 S. Western St.) in Amarillo. The clinic is first-come, first-served, so expect to get there as early as 2am if you want to be sure you are seen. Services offered include: doctor visits, STD screenings (until noon), immunizations, earn/nose/throat, pediatrics, mental health, physical therapy, wound care, orthopedics, foot care, assessments, pain management, dental care (i.e., cleaning, fillings, extractions), eye care (i.e., exams, eyeglasses, fittings), blood pressure control, nutrition & cooking demos, addiction help, massage/hydrotherapy, clothes closet, food bank, lifestyle & spiritual counseling, and dog grooming.
If you are a medical professional and would like to help, Harris would love to hear from you. They’ll certainly have overflow patients that need help, so please reach out. You can call him at (806) 333-4344.
