Clinic staff and invited dignitaries commemorate the partnership among Keys AHEC, Womankind and the Good Health Clinic with a ribbon cutting.

Marathon’s Gulfside Village is growing as a health care haven for the Middle Keys’ medically underserved and vulnerable populations. On Jan. 24, Keys AHEC, Womankind and Good Health Clinic celebrated a ribbon cutting for a reimagined combined health center. Now under a single roof, the office at 5800 Overseas Hwy., Suite 36 combines Womankind’s offerings of full women’s health exams and prenatal care; Good Health Clinic’s adult primary care, specialty care and hospital services; and Keys AHEC’s on-site pediatric dental care. For more information on available services, visit keysahec.org, womankindkeywest.com and thegoodhealthclinic.org.
