Background

The Good Neighbor Health Clinic opened in White River Junction in 1992 to ensure that quality medical care is available to all those in the Upper Valley in medical need but without the means to pay.  In August 1996, we opened the Red Logan Dental Clinic in response to the need for dental care.

The two Good Neighbor clinics are very connected.  Dental patients must have a medical referral and may come through Good Neighbor.  Dental patients are screened for medical issues.  Patients who haven’t seen a medical provider in years are scheduled to come back for a complete physical exam. 

Both the medical and dental clinics are actively involved in matching clients to other kinds of resources they need.  We have assisted people with problems relating to housing, job placement, clothing, or transportation.  We provide these referral services to our clients and to callers who may not be seen in our clinics.  We are also a referral agency to a neighboring food pantry.

The clinic is open three nights a week with scheduled appointments beginning at 5:30.  The all-volunteer staff is comprised of physicians, nurses, allied health personnel, and medical students.  Other community volunteers work non-clinic hours to prepare charts, update the computer database, and provide clerical assistance.  Both Dartmouth College students and members of the community work in the clinic as admissions and clinic managers.
