About us

Since 1971, Lake County Free Clinic has worked to ensure that uninsured and underinsured adults and children in our communities have access to much-needed, whole-person healthcare. LCFC has continually responded to community need since the beginning. Now, medical, dental, and case management services are offered at 462 Chardon Street in Painesville.

Through the support of generous foundations, organizations and individuals, LCFC offers all services free-of-charge. Many patients donate to support the clinic’s operating budget and give health to others in the community.

Our mission

LCFC’s mission is to address the unmet healthcare needs of the residents of our community and beyond through the provision of quality medical, dental, and health education services.

Our vision

An engaged community in which health care needs are met with high-quality care while maximizing community resources.
