Samaritan Health Ministries
Our mission is to provide high-quality, affordable health and wellness services that support healthy living among uninsured families in Williamson and Travis Counties
Samaritan Health Ministries is a clinic for uninsured patients in Williamson and Travis Counties. We provide medical, dental, pharmaceutical, women's health and mental health services.
Last year we served more than 1100 patients. Even better, we had 4494 face-to-face patient encounters. Each of our patients is briefly interviewed each year to determine if they are able to access health care through one of several public assistance programs. If someone qualifies for care elsewhere, we provide short-term care and connect the patient to the resources available. Those who are ineligible for care elsewhere are able to use Samaritan Health Ministries as a medical home.
We enlist the help of volunteer health care providers, interpreters, and more to meet our mission. With your support, we can do even more.
