Wel­come

to Shepherd’s Cli­nic, a uni­que non-profit orga­ni­za­tion pro­vi­ding qua­lity, inte­gra­tive health care for an hour’s wage to Baltimore’s unin­su­red… hel­ping peo­ple who are una­ble to afford com­mer­cial health insu­rance, yet do not qua­lify for govern­ment assis­tance. Whether you are an unin­su­red indi­vi­dual strug­gling with a chro­nic health pro­blem or a health care pro­vi­der loo­king for a won­der­ful volun­teer oppor­tu­nity, you have come to the right place. Here’s who we are in a nutshell:

• We ope­ned our doors in 1991 to serve the health care needs of Baltimore’s unin­su­red, a popu­la­tion that just doesn’t get care except for emergencies. Our mis­sion has never changed.
• All of our patients live within thir­teen Bal­ti­more City zip codes (geo­graphi­cally half of the city), their hou­sehold inco­mes fall under 200% of poverty, and nearly all are wor­king or live in a hou­sehold with an emplo­yed individual.
• We are volunteer-driven. Some 250 volun­teer phy­si­cians, nur­ses, and others pro­vide our unin­su­red patients with a full con­ti­nuum of qua­lity health care, from pri­mary and spe­cialty care to men­tal health and well­ness services.
• As a long­time partner, nearby Union Memo­rial Hos­pi­tal pro­vi­des free diag­nos­tic, spe­cialty, and sur­gi­cal ser­vi­ces for our patients.
• We receive no govern­ment funds,  but rely on the gene­ro­sity of indi­vi­dual donors, foun­da­tions, civic orga­ni­za­tions, corporations, and congregations. And yes, that means that we need your help. Please see our DONATE NOW button…and thanks!
