The Point Washington Medical Clinic is excited to announce that beginning May 6th, the Clinic will expand its operations to include a fourth day of service on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The expanded operations are thanks in part to a newly established partnership with the University of Florida Emerald Coast Family Medicine Residency program and will allow the clinic to increase its care for more patients and also offer an opportunity for additional volunteers wishing to serve.
PWMC’s Executive Director, Hillary Glenn, DNP, worked together with local and regional community partners to establish a partnership enabling medical residents to provide patient care at the Point Washington Medical Clinic. In August, residents toured the PWMC facility and were eager to begin the collaborative effort. Roger Hall facilitated an introduction between PWMC and Dr. Joshua Hodge, the residency program director.
This comes just following the launch of the PWMC’s dental, physical therapy, and mental health programs. These programs are available exclusively by appointment for existing patients.
“When we first opened the clinic, we offered services one day a week,” said Glenn. “But, as demand has grown in the community, so have the services we are providing.”
The PWMC began as a pop-up, mobile clinic in 2017 and moved into its permanent building in early 2024. In the eight years since their founding, PWMC has provided the equivalent of $4 million in health care services across more than 18,000 patient visits. Today, PWMC sees more than 300 patients a month and serves as the area’s only no-fee-for-service, volunteer-driven primary care clinic.
