MHMC’s hours of operation occur the first (and third) Saturday of each month beginning at 8:00 a.m.  Our patients are seen on a first come-first served basis. 

MHMC staff are local volunteers comprised of board-certified local physicians and nurses, phlebotomists, medical assistants, clerical staff and spiritual staff.  These individuals commit to volunteer outside of their usual medical practices or professions.
