The Clinic provides free "non-emergency" health care to uninsured Lackawanna County residents who may otherwise forego health care due to cost or seek care in hospital emergency rooms. The Clinic strives to provide high quality care in a welcoming, respectful, and compassionate environment. The Clinic offers opportunities for teaching, research, learning, and service to University of Scranton faculty, students, and volunteers.

Purpose

The Clinic is committed to improving access to health care for the uninsured and promoting the University of Scranton's Jesuit tradition of educating "young men and women for and with others."
