Remote Area Medical (RAM) is a major nonprofit provider of free pop-up clinics. Their mission is to prevent pain and alleviate suffering by providing free, quality healthcare to those in need. They do this by delivering free dental, vision, and medical services to underserved and uninsured individuals. RAM’s Corps of more than 172,900 volunteers–licensed dental, vision, medical, and veterinary professionals–have treated more than 863,700 individuals delivering more than $174 million worth of free care.

Professional Opticians of Florida has partnered with RAM to host a clinic:

The patient parking lot will open no later than 12:01 a.m. (midnight local time) on the first night of the event and remain open.  As patients arrive at the parking lot, they will be provided with additional information regarding clinic opening processes and next steps. Clinic doors typically open at 6 a.m. Patients will enter the main entrance on Prosser Road, Gate #1, and additional information regarding clinic opening processes and next steps will be provided.

Patients should be prepared with their own food, water, medicines, and clothing, when arriving early. Bathrooms will be provided.

Free dental, vision, and medical services are provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to time constraints, be prepared to choose between DENTAL and VISION services. Medical services are offered to every patient attending the clinic.

Patients will be required to wear a face-covering and must undergo a COVID-19 screening before entering the clinic.

All services are free and open to the public. No ID required.

In some situations, such as inclement weather, volunteer cancellations, or other circumstances outside of RAM’s control, the parking lot may open earlier or a smaller number of patients served. RAM encourages everyone who would like services, especially dental services, to arrive as early as possible.

*Clinic closing time may vary based on each service area’s daily capacity. Please check RAM’s clinic FAQ page for more information.
