| "Blood is Essential to Life, and Routine Lab Monitoring is a vital part of managing and ensuring our health and well-being. These tests serve as a direct line of communication between our bodies and our Healthcare Providers. No one should ever have to choose between staying Healthy and making ends meet, or have to lose sleep worrying about what the bill will look like when it comes in the mail. Our Mission at Southside Wellness Clinic is to provide affordable and accessible Healthcare services so that every Man, Woman and Child in our Community can have access to the compassionate care that they deserve. Our goal is to Empower our Patients by arming them with the knowledge and information that they need to make informed decisions about their Health.” |
