Welcome to United Community Clinics
United Community Clinics (UCC) provides care to anyone who needs it. In 2007, the clinic saw a total of 575 patients, more than two-thirds of whom had no health insurance.
UCC is a free health clinic coordinated by University of Pennsylvania students from the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Social Work. Located in a church in the East Parkside community of West Philadelphia, UCC draws upon the resources and expertise of this multi-disciplinary group of students in order to offer a wide range of services to the surrounding community. Our goal is to develop an understanding of the needs of the community, and respond to those needs by providing clinical assistance, education, referral, and representation services.

UCC welcomes walk-ins. However, patients can guarantee a spot by signing up at the church between 8:00a and 4:00p the day they wish to be seen. Health insurance is not required.
