I was a patient today at the Bethel Free Health Clinic. I’ve been experiencing symptoms of hypertension. I had gotten sick at work and unfortunately had to visit the emergency room. The doctor advised me to get a follow-up. I can be seen here. I cannot afford insurance at my job and was unable to be seen at the Coastal Clinic. The staff/volunteers were great! Everyone was very pleasant. Having this health care facility is a blessing to the community.
Thank You!!
Today I visited your clinic. I wanted to express how impressed I was with your facility.
The personnel you had working did an excellent job, and I was in and out quicker than any doctor visit I have ever had.
The doctor was very thorough and answered all my questions, easing any concerns.
I would like to thank you guys one more time. Keep up the good work. God Bless you in the New Year to come.
I am unable to work due to many health issues, and I am unable to get any insurance or Medicaid. I have been well over a year without insulin for my diabetes and medication for my many other issues.
I have been very sick and desperate without medical care. My best friend found Bethel Free Health Clinic on the internet. I live in New Augusta, MS, almost two hours away, yet they still welcomed me into this clinic. They have literally saved my life!
Everyone here is a volunteer, and they all show the love of God!
I have been here three times in the last six weeks because Dr. Clippinger wanted to make sure he regulated all my meds to my needs.
Not once has anyone made me less than a worthy hungry being, and that says a lot! So if not for this clinic, I don’t know what I would do.
I also want to say thank you to all the awesome people that have assisted and been so kind and generous.
God Bless You All!
