Neighborhood Health started with one single office 40 years ago basically to aid the homeless and those without insurance. A lot has changed since it’s opening in the late 70s.

The downtown location has been dubbed “The Homeless Clinic” and well deserved.
Neighborhood Health started with one single office 40 years ago basically to aid the homeless. A lot has changed since it’s opening in the late 70s.

Today they have 13 locations scattered throughout Davidson County, Lebanon and Hartsville. The downtown Nashville location has been dubbed “The Homeless Clinic” and it’s well deserved.
