Health Clinic

Aerie students were treated to an exceptional medical education as they made house calls with Dr. Greg Moore, Aerie's medical director, here examining a patient with cataracts.



Aerie's free public health clinic operated for 2 days out of the community center, with the second afternoon reserved for house calls for anyone not able to make it to the clinic.




Clinic operations were supported by the hard work of several language interpreters, in addition to Aerie students with Spanish fluency.





Aerie students made time during the clinic to direct local elementary school students in CPR techniques.


All together, the clinic treated almost 75 patients, split between clinic visits and house calls in the local area.
