UPDATE: We are making some changes over here at the Country Doctor Youth Clinic. We’re changing our name to UW Youth Clinic or University of Washington Youth Clinic or UWYC (since we are a UW program and part Adolescent Medicine.)  For over 20 years we have been exclusively located at The Country Doctor Community Clinic on Capitol Hill.  Last summer we expanded to ROOTS shelter on Mondays (2nd & 4th) to make accessing services easier for our youth and young adults.  A few months ago we expanded our services to the Auburn area at Nexus Youth and Families on the 1st, 3rd, 5th Fridays of the month. ​

​NO-COST HEALTHCARE
