North Fork Valley Community Health Center [1]
[]
Date: 2022-09
UK North Fork Valley Community Health Center has state-of-the-art facilities and a wide range of services. Included in the clinic are: 14 full-size exam rooms, one procedure room and a dental suite. The clinic has licensed psychologists on staff and a pharmacy on site. Nutritional counseling is also available.
In addition to a dental suite within the clinic, the UK North Fork Valley Community Health Center operates a Ronald McDonald Care Mobile, a two-chair dental office on wheels. Studies show that more than half of Eastern Kentucky children ages 2-11 suffer from tooth decay. To help combat that problem, the care mobile brings education and preventive dental services directly to children with unmet needs in Perry and surrounding counties.
All patients are treated regardless of their income or ability to pay. UK North Fork Valley Community Health Center serves all clients equally, without regard to race, color, religion or national origin. The clinic has a sliding fee scale to help reduce the financial burden that health care costs can create and accepts all insurances.
