Mission Statement:

Our Mission is to provide health care to those with no resources to pay, with the following major goals in mind:

To glorify God by sharing the love of Christ with all;
To prescribe and dispense 99% generic medicines from our own pharmacy and provide brand drugs only when there is no generic alternative;
To influence physicians to prescribe generic medicines whenever possible;
To develop strategies for health care that balance evidence-based medicine and cost control;
To advocate for the poor; to intercede for those who have no voice or no knowledge about entry into an appropriate health care system;
To provide most services utilizing a volunteer work force so that resources can be devoted to medical care and medicines;
To offer educational training to medical, pharmacy, and nursing students where emphasis is directed to:
Listening to the patient
Reliance upon physical exam skills rather than expensive lab tests and x-rays
Utilizing cost-effective approaches to health care
Addressing spiritual needs of patients
Highlighting the physician-as-servant model
