Community Health Center of the North Country

Our Community Health Centers are open to the public by appointment or walk-in. All are welcome. Community Health Centers are located in both St.

Lawrence and Franklin Counties (Malone, Canton, Gouverneur, Ogdensburg and Watertown). Services vary by site but generally include: comprehensive primary, pediatric, behavioral, dental, optometry, and preventative care services to persons of all ages, regardless of their ability to pay. While accepting most insurances, Community Health Centers are also designated as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC's) offering a sliding fee scale to those individuals and families that are uninsured and/or medically under-served. The sliding fee scale is based on patients' family size and income level.

Great reminder from our partners at Jefferson County Public Health Service

In a car crash, the fluffy padding in a winter coat immediately flattens out from the force, leaving extra space between the harness and child - putting them at risk of being thrown from their seat. Use thin layers and/or put a blanket on them after harnessing them in their car seat. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3c2iQ4V

Screening for cancers or diseases that you may be at risk for is the key to staying ahead of your health. It is important to keep up with yearly health screenings as prevention is much better than a cure!

Unlike any other Tuesday, Giving Tuesday reminds us to come together to make a profound difference in the lives of others, create a positive impact, and spread kindness far and wide. The gift of giving (whether it be a monetary donation, donation of services, volunteering, or even helping a friend or neighbor in need) can truly make a difference in the lives of others.

Our Story

Our new location in Ogdensburg at 102 Ford Street is now open as well and accepting new patients. By providing quality healthcare to all residents of Northern New York regardless of insurance status or ability to pay, our team is the safety net for our North Country Communities.

Services vary by site but generally include: primary, pediatric, behavioral, dental, optometry, and preventative care to persons of all ages. Case management, care coordination, WIC, health home care management, along with insurance enrollment assistance are also available. Substance abuse challenges? We have a new program to help you and your family with those challenges as well.

New patients are being accepted at all locations. Appointments are preferred, but slots for walk-in and same day visits are generally available.

While accepting most insurances, Community Health Centers are also designated as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) offering a sliding fee scale to those individuals and families that are uninsured and/or medically under-served. The sliding fee scale is based on patients' family size and income level. Our team has been serving families across the North Country for over 40 years. Visit chcnorthcountry.org for further details.
