Patient Stories
“The Clinic provides those of us who do not have health insurance with a much-needed service. I would have to go to the hospital emergency room for help were it not for the Crescent Community Clinic.”
“The staff treated me with dignity and caring even though I am homeless.”
“I appreciate the volunteers who provided me with the answers to my questions about diabetes. I could not afford the monitor to test my glucose levels. The GE monitor and testing strips the Clinic supplied helped me keep my blood levels in range.”
“I recently lost my job and health insurance. The Clinic has been a life saver for me. The staff is friendly and very helpful. They enrolled me in the Pharmaceutical Prescription Assistance program which supplied me with free medication for my high blood pressure.”
“Now more than ever, with the loss of my employment, it was important to reach out to Crescent Community Clinic for mental health counseling.”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you Crescent! Without this Clinic I wouldn’t know where I would be.
The clinic has saved my life over and over.
5½ years smoke-free — I never thought I could do it!
I’m a diabetic and without the donated glucose monitor and supplies I could very well be dead. Dental issues were painful — now they’re managed.
Every single volunteer has been an absolute joy… I have always been treated with respect.”“I was blessed to find Crescent Community Clinic. It has given me the opportunity to finally get answers to my chronic health conditions. The peace of mind to know you are not alone is priceless. The staff and volunteers have been extremely helpful. If it were not for the clinic, I would not be in a better place today and feel like a person of worth again.”
“When I first came to the clinic I was lost, confused, and shy. After three years I have made real progress and feel accepted. I am still working with the counselors and moving forward with my life.”
“Dr. Hiba and Dr. Zarad saved my life and found my colon cancer. It has been several years and I am cancer-free. My life was saved by the compassionate volunteers at Crescent Community Clinic.”
“I thank the physicians and therapists for all the health care I received. You all saved my life and ‘thank you’ doesn’t say enough about my gratitude.”
“I am 39 years old with depression and COPD. With the help of Crescent Community Clinic I have my COPD under control and my depression is manageable. I have several job interviews coming up and when I get employed I will donate what I can.”
“The clinic hosted a homeless day and I was reluctant to come… I was pleasantly surprised at the welcoming atmosphere and compassionate staff. I continue to come for appointments and look forward to getting a job and giving back.”
