“I came to Hope Clinic in need of help. I had depression, anxiety, and PTSD. I left my dream job because of my anxiety and depression. I feared leaving my home, driving became a nightmare. I was in financial hardship.
Hope was able to connect this client with a licensed professional clinical for weekly therapy at no cost.
"My therapist and I talked about my dreams, fears and my strengths. When I started therapy, I told my therapist that I would never get on a plane, and that I don't think I can work because I may not be a reliable person. Recently, I flew to visit my son and grandchildren and, and I spent my birthday out of state with my oldest son. The most amazing part is that I am now working full time, and no longer have fears of leaving my home and engaging with people."
"Through my therapist believing in me and praying with me, I feel like a brand new me. I am strong and ready for the world. I want to thank Hope Clinic for being there when I needed help."

Recently the medical clinic saw a patient with multiple diagnoses, who needed ongoing primary and specialty care.
Unfortunately, they were falling through the cracks.
They didn't quite qualify for Medicaid, but couldn't afford private insurance either. A social worker at Hope helped the patient access a grant program to cover their insurance premiums, making their ongoing care accessible and affordable!
Whole Person Care goes beyond medical care to help patients address the real obstacles they face, which are often institutional as much as medical. At Hope, we believe that every person is made in the image of God, and that serving others is serving God! Our faith-driven commitment to serve and provide impeccable care sets Hope apart in the community.
One of Hope Clinic’s volunteer dentists was fitting a patient for dentures. It generally takes several weeks to create a denture, but at their appointment, the patient asked if it was possible for these dentures to be ready in the next seven days. You see, their daughter was getting married.
Naturally they wanted their best smile for this very special occasion. Hope's dental clinic manager Kathy Weber contacted Ward Dental Lab and made the audacious ask to put a rush on these dentures—"could they be completed in just 6 days??"
Well, Kathy & Ward made it happen! Her commitment to her patient—and Hope's positive relationship with our local partners like Ward's—ensured that our patient's new denture was delivered to Hope 6 days later, in time for their daughter's wedding!
Needless to say, our patient was all smiles.
