You do not need to be sick to come. Most people we see feel perfectly fine. That is exactly the point.

A neighbor’s story
“I came to the farmers market for vegetables and left with my life. My blood pressure was 182/110. I didn’t feel anything wrong. The health coach found it and got me to a doctor the same day. Six months later, I’m on medication and my numbers are normal.”Karen, 64 · Mattapan
Most people who come in feel fine. So did Karen. Bring someone you love. A parent, a neighbor, a friend who keeps putting it off. Fifteen minutes. No cost.
If something needs attention
We do not send you home with a number.
If your readings are high, your health coach stays with you. We explain what the numbers mean. We help you reach a doctor, or find one if you do not have one. We follow up.
“I've been coming to screenings for two years. My health coach helped me understand my medications, helped me find a doctor when I didn't have one, and checks in on me every few months. In Haiti, we don't go to the doctor until we're dying. Now I understand prevention.”
