My Cause
The Mission: Chesapeake Care Clinic is committed to providing medical & dental care to the low-income & underserved individuals throughout Hampton Roads. We have faithfully served this area for 28 years & continue to do so through generous support from our community.
About the Organization:
Chesapeake Care Clinic seeks to provide medical & dental services to low-income & underserved individuals to improve the quality of life in the community. Even with Medicaid expansion & the Affordable Care Act, there is still a massive gap in healthcare coverage in Virginia with an estimated 77,000 uninsured adults in South Hampton Roads alone.
Our clinic allows patients to receive the care they need without incurring the burden of heavy financial debt. During 2018, we provided 2,046 unduplicated patients with 6,220 patient visits. Additionally, we had 3,599 pharmacy visits where we provided 9,522 prescriptions valued at $3.1M. Our volunteers gave 24,059 hours of service valued at $734,839 (11.75FTE). For every $1 donated, Chesapeake Care Clinic is able to provide $8.61 of healthcare services because of the large number of volunteers that donate their time.
We have an incredible network of medical, specialist, dental & administrative volunteers who help us provide quality services including:
- Specialty Visits: Gynecology, Neurology, Dermatology, Optometry, Urology, Nephrology, Endocrinology, Rheumatology, Pulmonology, Cardiology, Orthopedics, Sleep Apnea & more
- Medications & Diabetic Supplies
- Blood Pressure Education Clinics
- Diabetic Education Clinics
- Mental Health Counseling
- Health & Wellness Clinics: Exercise & Cooking Class
- Dental Cleanings
- Dental Extractions
- Denture Program
Thank you for supporting Chesapeake Care Clinic & helping us help others!

I believe that all people are entitled to equal physical and mental care. Since the Government can't figure it out we need to do what we can. For 7 years I worked (volunteered at GMFC) and now my loved ones are provided care through Old Towne Medical & Dental. Go Dani!
