The Will County Community Health Center has been caring for the underinsured and uninsured residents of Will County since 1996. The Center received its' Federal designation in May 2001 and evolved from the Clinic Service Division of the Will County Health Department, replacing fragmented clinic care with holistic primary care services. As the only Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in the County, WCCHC is dedicated to its role as a safety net provider, serving all residents regardless of age, race, national origin or ability to pay. Multidisciplinary care is provided six days a week with two evening sessions, plus 24 hour physician accountability. Services include General Medicine, Woman's Services, STD/ HIV, Immunization, Laboratory and Dentistry. Charges are based on a sliding fee scale.

The Center is strategically located in the heart of the east side of Joliet at 1106 Neal Avenue. Since the Center's inception basic barriers to primary health care have been eliminated.

The increased number of persons seen for face-to-face health encounters at the Center is indicative of the unmet need of this community. The Center's growth is understandable, considering it is the only local clinic offering comprehensive primary health care on a sliding fee scale. The Center proudly offers a medical home for any and all persons who seek affordable quality health care. Patients without insurance are on a sliding fee scale. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, Private Insurance, HMO & PPO. MasterCard and Visa may also be used.
