Shelby Township Free Medical and Dental Clinic – Trinity Community Care

I must apologize about the quality of this month’s column. I have been involved with the building of a free medical and dental clinic called Trinity Community Care over the past three years and we are opening up this month on a limited basis. The clinic has been a huge endeavor of time and effort for a number of people. It is located on Van Dyke in Shelby Township.

Over the last couple of months I have been installing equipment, dry walling, moving donated dental equipment and working on the clinic almost every night after seeing patients and on the weekends.

My wife Polly is a medical social worker and has been creating policy with some others to determine who can be seen at the clinic. We are starting out small and will be increasing the number of patients seen and the number of days we treat patients as our volunteer base increases and as we get the details worked out.

Expect to be getting more information about this early next year. I would ask though that you do not call my office in regards to this clinic as this is a completely separate entity and my team knows very little about it.
