Medical Services
The Conejo Free Clinic is a not for profit organization serving
the Conejo Valley and Ventura County with medical services
for those who have no other access to care. The Clinic is
staffed by volunteers. Medical Services are provided weekly
by appointment and according to the availability
of volunteer physicians and medical staff. Some services book
up quickly and there may be a wait. We will try to get you
in as soon as possible.
DONATIONS:
Since we are a non-profit and survive only by grants and
donations, we request a $20 donation (or any portion of the
$20 if you are able) at the time of your visit. This helps
us offset our costs and keep our doors open, however no one
is turned away due to inability to make a donation.
The Clinics offered are:
Family Practice Clinics
These services include general practice medical problems including
minor infections (viral, urinary, etc.), school and limited
work exams, sexually transmitted diseases, and brief consultations
for other medical problems. Lab tests can be performed, on
our doctor's orders. Lab test requests from other facilities
or physicians cannot be done.
Women's Clinics
Services cover PAP tests, breast exams, birth control, hormone
replacement therapy, vaginal infections, and sexually transmitted
diseases. These can be given only if prescribed through our
clinic. Low cost mammogram referrals are also available to
our patients.
Pediatric Clinics
Clinics available by appointment for children up to 18 years
of age.
Anonymous HIV testing and counseling
A one to one counseling session is followed with the testing.
Results are given in one week, also in a one to one session.
This program is completely anonymous.
Immunization Clinics
Immunizations for children are offered by appointment. These
include Dtap, Oral Polio, Hib, MMR (measles, mumps and rubella),
Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Prevnar and Chicken Pox. Previous
immunization records MUST be brought in. A donation of $20.00
per family (regardless of number of children or number of
immunizations) is greatly appreciated.
