Near West Free Clinic

‘‘ “I began volunteering at the Near West Free Clinic (NWFC) in early 2021 and immediately felt drawn to their mission. It allowed me to practice the skills I was learning in the classroom while serving the Indianapolis community. Growing up in an underserved rural area, I have always had a passion for service, especially in disadvantaged communities. NWFC provides a place for me to fulfill that passion and offer care to individuals who may not have access to healthcare elsewhere. My experience at the clinic has been pivotal in my transition from student to physician, and I will be forever grateful for my time there.”
