HOPE
HELP
HEALING
FOR ALL
The GHCCM medical clinic in Hickory, North Carolina implemented telehealth video conferences during the COVID-19 pandemic to allow us to see patients who are sick and follow up on their condition and to provide education and instruction as to what they need to do if they experience symptoms of COVID-19. These visits can help minimize exposure for well patients and lessen their risks for contracting the virus. Instructions will be provided as to when to call the doctor and when to go to the ER. This will also be when we follow up on their medication refills, if needed.
The clinic is currently offering telehealth and in-person medical visits.
GHCCM Medical Clinic is so wonderful and sweet. You feel the love when you come in the door. Staff is the Best. I thank God for all of them. I feel I’m getting the best treatments with them. Thank God for them.
Greater Hickory Cooperative Christian Ministry (GHCCM) medical clinic provides healthcare, vision and dental services, and Hepatitis C treatment for uninsured adults. These services are supported by area healthcare providers, businesses, and volunteers along with public and private sponsors.
The medical clinic is here to help underprivileged adults in our community receive the healthcare they need at no charge.
If you are now eligible for full Medicaid, please schedule a new patient appointment with your newly assigned primary care doctor. GHCCM will not continue Primary Care for patients eligible for full Medicaid.
GHCCM can only provide a “bridge” appointment to ensure continuity of care until you are seen at your new practice.
If you need additional assistance with obtaining a Medicaid provider, please ask about Medicaid counseling appointments at GHCCM.
