Remote Area Medical (RAM) is offering free medical, dental and vision services for people in need in the community on February 11th – 13th at the Jacobs Building in Chilhowee Park. The patient parking lot will open no later than 10 p.m. on Thursday February 10th and the services will be provided starting at 6 a.m. on a first come, first come basis. Services will include dental cleanings, dental fillings, dental extractions, dental x-rays, eye exams, glaucoma testing, eyeglass prescription, eyeglasses made on-site, women’s health exams, flu shots and general medical exams, officials said. Due to time constraints, patients must choose between dental and vision services. They suggest that you bring food and drink, as there will likely be a wait.
Everyone will have to wear a mask, while in the clinic, and the clinic doors will open at 6 a.m. on Friday. You can get more info on Remote Area Medical’s Official Website.
