The Clearwater Free Clinic, a volunteer-driven non-profit, non-government medical facility.
About us
Since 1977, the Clearwater Free Clinic has provided problem oriented health care to low-income uninsured residents of upper Pinellas County by means of office visits, medications, lab work, x-rays, and specialty referrals. The Clinic, a volunteer driven non-profit, non-government medical facility, provides primary health care at no cost to those who do not qualify for government assistance and who cannot afford private medical care. The majority of the patients at the Clinic are hard working people with limited incomes or low paying jobs. Their income excludes them from receiving government assistance, yet prohibits them from affording private health care or insurance. Without the aid of the Clearwater Free Clinic, these uninsured residents would turn to emergency rooms for non-emergent care, at a great cost to themselves and the hospitals. More upsetting is thatmany of the uninsured will often ignore significant health problems until a crisis occurs, not wanting to incur debt. This is where the Clearwater Free Clinic is able to help.

The mind and body connection is more important than most people realize. There are several ways in which your mental state can affect your physical health. 1. Digestive Health: Research has shown that chronic depression, stress, or anxiety can actually change the physiology of the digestive tract affecting the way it functions and, in some cases, intensifying pain and discomfort or nausea. 2. Sleep Health & Energy: Not only can chronic stress and depression spur feelings of fatigue and a lack of energy, they can also affect your ability to get sound sleep. This can contribute to developing sleep disorders, such as insomnia or sleep apnea. 3. Heart Health: When you're in a state of stress, the body releases the hormone cortisol, which causes a spike in blood pressure and heart rate. Over time, high stress levels or chronic depression, anxiety or PTSD may increase your risk of developing heart disease. 4. Longevity: Because mental health has such an extensive impact on the entire body, it has been found that severe and chronic mental health issues can decrease overall life expectancy. Mental health can impact everything from the immune system to other chronic health conditions.
