Premier Mobile Health Services adds new Fort Myers site
A nonprofit mobile health clinic that brings essential medical care to those in need across Lee County is adding a new Fort Myers site — one of six locations it visits each month.
On Monday, March 11, Premier Mobile Health Services will park its medical clinic on wheels at Kimmie’s Recovery Zone, 507 Center Road in Fort Myers, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Kimmie’s Recovery Zone is a nonprofit community organization for those recovering from substance use disorders. It hosts a community food distribution at the same time as the mobile clinic hours, a combination that will allow both organizations to more effectively connect with clients.
“With a mission of providing quality health care to the medically vulnerable, we’re delighted to welcome Kimmie’s Recovery Zone as our newest community partner,” said Dr. Nadine “Deanie” Singh, CEO of Premier Mobile Health Services.
Founded by Singh in 2018, Premier Mobile Health Services offers an array of services to low-income children, families, individuals and the uninsured, including preventive screenings, vaccinations, nutrition counseling, school physicals and more.
Patients without insurance and those who provide proof of income below 200 percent of the federal poverty guidelines account for two-thirds of its population and are provided care at no cost; others in need pay on a sliding scale based on income.
To learn more or schedule an appointment, call 239-288-7949. Additional information and the monthly mobile clinic schedule can be found online at www.premiermobilehealth.org.
