The clinic’s history traces back to a 1975 initiative by two religious sisters who sought to bring doctor visits to people without health insurance. Their effort grew into the Scranton Primary Health Care Center, officially serving the community for more than four decades. The mission emphasizes quality primary, dental and behavioral health care at reasonable cost, and the organization continues to educate patients and keep them informed at every step of treatment.
