The Old Irving Park Community Clinic is a free, primary care facility in Chicago founded in 2007 by George Maltezos, LCPC and Dr. Charles Martinez on the belief that all people, regardless of socio-economic status, have the right to quality health care. Our objective is to provide quality, free, culturally competent medical and behavioral health care in a dignified and respectful manner to uninsured and under-served individuals and their families. We do this through partnerships with individual volunteers , institutional health care providers, and local businesses. Moreover, Old Irving Park Community Clinic is one of the few free clinics to offer both behavioral health and medical services under one roof. The patients served are uninsured working people and their families along with the unemployed who do not qualify for any type of government assistance programs, such as Medicaid or Medicare, or have no access to any financial resources for payment for health care. The clinic is the only free clinic within our service area (northwest side of Chicago). By caring for individuals, we also directly impact their families. Healthy families in the community enable people to keep their jobs, further their education, and improve their quality of life. Further, we enrich the community by creating opportunities for community outreach to volunteers that support the clinic. You can learn more about our specific services at: http://www.oipcc.org/about
