Walltown Neighborhood Clinic
Providing Health Care for the Entire Family
Access to health care services is a crucial part of any community. Ensuring that each member of a neighborhood gets regular check-ups, preventive care and easy access to affordable care for chronic illnesses is an investment in the future of our community. The Walltown Neighborhood Clinic provides those key services, helping Durham residents to stay healthier, and giving youngsters and adults a dose of good medicine.
Reaching out in the community
The Walltown Neighborhood Clinic, a joint program of Lincoln Community Health Center and Duke Community Health, was designed with the help of multiple community members to meet the health needs of residents in the Walltown community. The clinic, located in a renovated house in the Walltown Neighborhood, is easily accessible to any Durham resident needing care.
This health clinic serves all members of the family. Many families are facing difficult financial situations, and often don’t have medical insurance. Some residents have chronic medical conditions that impact their lives each day. These clinics offer them a place to get the primary health care that they or their families may need, as well as access to health education.
