Yes free clinics help so much.They are full each day open.You wait and wait to be seen by a doctor.These clinic help stop illnesses from spreading.Many help with medications and get you into the right programs to help.If the government keeps cutting things to the poor many more clinics and things will have to open to help,those in need.Many don't understand what poverty is like till they get there.The problem is many more will.We have 1 clinic in hillsdale county.Many living out in rural communities can't even get there.Like most of Mi we need jobs.So many things set empty.HOMES AND FACTORIES.

If you have a medical condition and no insurance, you already know how hard it is on your wallet, doctor vists are Not cheap and medicine can take up to a weeks or more income to pay for it. Now to add insult to injury you are out of work living on nothing, and not only do you not have insurance you have no money. Thank God for the free clinics in Lansing, the Doctors and Nurses who donate their time. People could die but for these places. You pay what you can and if you have nothing they expect nothing. These people are truly angels of Mercy!
