About the Physicians’ Care Clinic
Providing quality, accessible healthcare to Dekalb County residents since 1992.
Our Mission
The mission of Physicians’ Care Clinic is to provide DeKalb County’s low-income, uninsured adults with access to quality, comprehensive, non-emergency medical care delivered with excellence, compassion and dignity.
Our History
Physicians’ Care Clinic was founded in 1992 as an initiative of the DeKalb Medical Society and today operates as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. The clinic’s medical facility, administrative offices, professional medical services, and pharmaceuticals – together valued at nearly $1 million annually – are all donated to the Physicians’ Care Clinic, making it possible for the clinic to provide primary health care to low-income and uninsured county residents who cannot access medical treatment except through hospital emergency room visits.
In addition to in-kind donations, operating expenses are paid for through philanthropic gifts from individuals, foundations, local businesses and corporations that believe in the clinic’s mission and want to help disadvantaged DeKalb County residents receive the health care they critically need.
Board of Directors
Oversight for Physicians’ Care Clinic is provided by volunteer physicians, medical professionals, and community residents who serve on the clinic’s Board of Directors.
Our Volunteer Team
Professional medical volunteers are the heart and soul of Physicians’ Care Clinic in Atlanta. Over 200 volunteers dedicate thousands of hours every year to provide patient care to our Dekalb County neighbors.
