The mission of Macon Volunteer Clinic is
to improve health and wellness by providing
primary care services to uninsured working
adults of Macon-Bibb and Twiggs County,
Georgia, at no cost.
These services include primary medical
care, chronic disease management,
preventive screenings, dental care, mental
health counselling, and medication
assistance. By providing these vital services
free of charge, we not only satisfy the
fundamental need for healthcare but also
contribute to overall well-being and quality
of life in Central Georgia.
The best advice I've received is that
in both business and life, challenges are
inevitable. But it's our ability to adapt, learn
from setbacks, and keep pushing forward
that ultimately leads to success.
What experiences led you to choosing this
professional path? I witnessed healthcare
disparities first-hand and developed a
deep desire to address inequities. Working
at Macon Volunteer Clinic allows me to
directly impact lives and work towards
a more equitable healthcare system,
motivating me daily.
To women in Central Georgia exploring
entrepreneurship or career changes:
Embrace your community's support. Seek
local mentors, join entrepreneurial groups,
and never stop learning. Prioritize self-care,
stay resilient, and trust in your abilities. Your
journey is yours alone, each step forward
brings growth and fulfilment.
