Heartland Community Health Clinic at 1701 West Garden Street, Peoria, Illinois.

I started going to Heartland in 2002. At that time, there was only the one facility down on Garden. I had just lost a job and was needing to get some type of healthcare, and I had already found out that the state's insurance and COBRA was going to cost me a lot more per month than what I was able to pay. I am ashamed to say that prior to this, I had considered myself to be "above" that type of "clinic," thinking that it was mainly for what I considered to be the "down and outers." Well, my attitude changed very quickly, as I became one of the patients at this facility and soon discovered that Heartland serves a wide variety of persons from many walks of life. I greatly appreciate the availability of this type of healthcare to those of us who are either underinsured or uninsured, and I have highly recommended Heartland to many people throughout the years.

I tell them I have bronchitis and they give me allergy medicine I feel like I was not heard and they did not care or care to listen
