Who We Are

Mission

Our mission is to provide personalized and comprehensive medical care to those who enter our clinic doors. We strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to the hurting and marginalized, treating every patient as a beloved child of God.

Vision

We believe every person we serve is loved by God and worthy of the very best care. We envision a day when no one is forgotten, unseen, or without an advocate; a day when healing of the body opens the door to healing of the whole person. Every life we touch will know, without question, that God is on their side.

Protection

Healing Shepherd Clinic, founded in 2008, is dedicated to providing education, preventative care, and medical treatment to unsheltered individuals in a climate of compassion and dignity.

Those experiencing homelessness are exposed to harsh weather, malnutrition, diseases, and lack of sanitation. Many are unaware that they have chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or mental illness. Often, their only option for medical care is to go to the emergency room, even for something as simply treated as an infection. Healing Shepherd Clinic provides primary and preventative care to the residents at UGM-TC and tenants of The Vineyard on Lancaster affordable housing apartments. Patients at the clinic can be treated for many common illnesses and conditions that are prevalent in the homeless population including heart, liver, and kidney diseases; skin infections; chronic pulmonary disease; diabetes and hypertension.

The team is composed of a Nurse Practitioner, an RN, and a Healthcare Coordinator, and is supported by volunteer physicians who donate their time. Together, they care for the mental, physical, and spiritual well-being of our patients.

*Healing Shepherd Clinic is a separate 501(c)(3) non-profit operating on the Union Gospel Mission of Tarrant County campus.
