My Appeal
Medical & dental care are basic needs that are not affordable & accessible to everyone. For over 25 years, Chesapeake Care has maintained the highest standards & fulfilled its mission to provide high quality health care & education to improve the community’s quality of life.
Chesapeake Care has a rich history of compassion & commitment to providing comprehensive health services to the most vulnerable & underserved populations. The individuals who work & volunteer at Chesapeake Care Clinic genuinely believe in the mission to provide alternative, high quality, cost effective primary healthcare. Their motivated and passionate work ethic make significant differences in the lives of patients.
By improving the health of our patients, our patients are able to return to work, raise their children, take care of elderly parents & become more productive members of our community which results in a better future for our community.
We can ONLY accomplish these goals with the generous support of our community.

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
