Free Medical Clinic of Aiken County Opens its New Facility

The Free Medical Clinic of Aiken County has taken one of the biggest steps in the life and work of the clinic. A new facility has been purchased in the City of Aiken from which to operate. This new location will enable the clinic to fully realize its mission. The clinic will be able to expand the hours of operation, and extend the provision of service to both chronic and non emergency needs.

On Friday, November 21, 2008, at 10 am, there was a ceremony to publicly open the new facility. The opening of this facility fulfills a key strategic goal established for the clinic,

During the ceremony the name of the Free Medical Clinic of Aiken County was changed to the Community Medical Clinic of Aiken County. The distinction of the name change is to ensure that  present and future patients recognize the clinic as the Aiken Community's primary medical care provider for those who do not have the means necessary to employ other medical providers. Going forward, the Community Medical Clinic of Aiken County will strive to become part of the medical community in delivering to the needs of Aiken County citizens, and work in coordination with other medical providers.

The new facility is located at 244 Greeneville Street, two blocks behind Aiken Public Safety's facility,The phone number is (803) 226-0631.
