Remote Area Medical Returns to Virginia Offering Essential Services

In an effort to address healthcare gaps in underserved communities, Remote Area Medical (RAM) is hosting a free pop-up clinic in Cumberland County, Virginia, on March 29, 2025. The clinic will provide critical medical, dental, and vision services at no cost to attendees.

What Services Will Be Available?

• Dental Care: Extractions, fillings, and cleanings
• Vision Services: Eye exams and free prescription glasses (made on-site)
• Medical Services: General health check-ups, women’s health screenings, and chronic disease management

Why This Clinic Matters

Many residents in rural Virginia struggle with limited access to healthcare due to financial barriers, lack of insurance, or distance from providers. RAM’s clinics aim to bridge that gap, ensuring everyone—regardless of income—can receive essential care.

How to Attend

1. Arrive Early: Services are first-come, first-served, with doors opening as early as midnight.
2. Bring Essentials: Photo ID (if available), list of medications, and any current eyeglasses.
3. Prepare for Wait Times: High demand means potential long lines, so pack water, snacks, and patience.

Location & Details

The clinic will be held at Cumberland County High School (1 Dukes Road, Cumberland, VA 23040). Parking is free, and volunteers will help guide attendees.

What Do You Think?

• Should free pop-up clinics like RAM’s be government-funded instead of relying on nonprofits?

• Would you camp overnight to secure a spot at a free medical clinic? Why or why not?
• Some argue that free clinics enable a broken system—should the focus shift to policy changes instead?
