Thank you to KQED for highlighting the essential role free clinics play in protecting access to care. As more Californians face barriers to health coverage, Clinic by the Bay remains committed to providing compassionate, quality care to our uninsured neighbors in San Francisco and San Mateo counties.

After the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill, many Californians no longer have access to healthcare because of higher premiums or their immigration status. Free clinics are rushing to fill the gaps in coverage.

We’re proud to celebrate our co-founder, Janet Reilly, recently featured by UCLA. Janet’s vision helped bring Clinic by the Bay to life, grounded in a simple but powerful belief: healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Because of her leadership, we’ve been able to serve thousands of working uninsured patients across the Bay Area with free, compassionate care.

Today, that vision continues to grow through our volunteer-powered model and expanded services, from primary care to mental health, dental, and food as medicine programs.

Thank you, Janet, for your enduring commitment to our community.

As a proud Bruin, she brings a unique perspective to her role as chair of the UC Board of Regents — and a crystal-clear vision of the role of higher education in America.

Congrats, Yuxin! Over the next few weeks, we'll be celebrating our volunteers who have been accepted to graduate programs! We love being an important part of their journey to medical school, nursing school, PA school, and more.

One of our amazing clinic volunteer, Yuxin was accepted at Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine. Clinic Manager Karen says, "I love the way she is thorough with our patients. She looks at every little thing." Thank you for completing 133 hours of volunteering. We'll miss you!

We are so honored to be named Climate Champion of the Month by the Climate Psychiatry Alliance!

During Ramadan, a San Francisco heat wave brought a Yemeni woman into our clinic with heat stress. We had resources on hand, but nothing in Arabic. And we quickly realized that our usual response of offering water wasn't right either. During Ramadan, our patients need different supports.

We contacted the Climate Psychiatry Alliance for permission to translate their "How to Survive Extreme Heat" flyer. Our staff translated it and updated the imagery to be culturally appropriate that same day. Our patient went home with it in hand.

Thank you to the Climate Psychiatry Alliance for this recognition and for saying yes so quickly. This is what it looks like when organizations show up for each other.
