This is Whole Health: Amanda Mendez

Mandy Mendez Edit2“Through the Pediatric Mobile Clinic, I have seen our most vulnerable patients receive health services they are unable to obtain otherwise. Through everything from vaccines that allow our children to attend school, to physical and emotional support for their previous and current concerns, the Pediatric Mobile Clinic is touching hearts and lives directly within our communities.”
