Our 5th Annual Dinner was a Great Success!
We would like to thank everyone who came out to support FernCare at this year’s Annual Dinner. Over 200 tickets were sold this year! Our thanks to all of the many volunteers, sponsors, silent auction donors, the Dinner Committee, the good folks at the Ukrainian Cultural Center, our Keynote Speaker, Gilda Z. Jacobs, and our marvelous Mistress of Ceremonies, Helaine Zace, Oakland County Commissioner. Together we have ensured that our doors will continue to be open to those in our community in need of free medical care. Our special thanks…
Current Waiting List is Closed
We are not scheduling new patients until further notice. We hope to begin scheduling again but not at this time. People currently on the waiting list will be notified of this and given information on other free and sliding scale clinics. We are well aware of the inconvience and hope we can resume a new patient schedule soon.
The Board and Clinic Staff welcome Dr. Popp to the clinic!
Dr. George (Chris) Popp is our new Medical Director. We want to thank Dr. Monique Reeves for all she did for us as Medical Director. We don’t lose Dr. Reeves, she has agreed to come back to the Board of Directors. FernCare wins all the way around!
