The Flying Doctors are preparing to land in the Morongo Basin once again.
The Morongo Basin will receive their annual visit from the Flying Doctors on Saturday, March 9. Community members can receive free dental and vision care at the Bell Center at Copper Mountain College.
All visiting doctors are volunteers. Hygienists and dentists will provide cleanings, fillings, and extractions, while optometrists will provide eye exams. New prescription eyeglasses will be available for patients, and anyone with prescriptions less than one year old may bring in their eyeglasses to receive a new pair.
A free event, no documentation is needed to receive health services. This clinic is open to all ages, though children must be supervised by a parent or guardian. Appointments are strongly encouraged and can be made by calling 760-820-2614.
The Flying Doctors event is sponsored by the Morongo Basin Healthcare District, in collaboration with Los Medicos Voladores, Healing California, Copper Mountain College, and the Joshua Tree VFW Post 7264. For more information, visit MorongoBasinHealth.org
