La Casita de la Salud is a
student-run clinic of New York Medical College dedicated to serving the
uninsured population of East Harlem.
The clinic, located at 413 East 120th Street, was founded on September 24th, 2005. La Casita operates within an existing satellite clinic
of Metropolitan Hospital called La Clinica del Barrio.
We are open every Saturday from 8 AM to 12 PM, and see 8 –
12 adult patients each clinic date to
ensure that adequate time is taken to address all patient concerns, and
to allow patients and providers to learn from each other in a meaningful
way.
