Maybe it was a busy day and I just chose the wrong day to go or maybe it was just that one day the clinic was hosted by incompetent staff. Or both. I think its both. Im a P4 Pharmacy Student and I knew exactly what problem I had and knew what I needed; all I needed was a doctor to take a look at my throat, confirm that I did have strep throat and write up a prescription because the US is the only country in the world absolutely paranoid about "antibiotic resistance" even in healthy 23 year olds like me and refuse to sell a PHARMACY GRAD STUDENT antibiotics for his own personal use. Logic. I digress. I presented before 10 AM waited about 20-30 minutes, was asked to bring proof of residency, brought it by 10:40 AM, and now it is 11:50 AM and the waiting list was literally the same as the hour before. The staff was apparently tending to other patients who werent even on the waiting list for about an hour. I now realize I couldve literally just gone to clinics such as CVS Minute Clinic (which is notorious for making you wait, apparently. Go figure) and gotten everything done and my antibiotic filled in less half the time it took me to do all this. Whats worse I still have my strep throat and now Ill have to make an appointment plus spend more time there. I understand that this is a government-operated clinic and is designed for people who cant afford expensive healthcare. I still think it should be noted the phrase "You get what you paid for" is still accurate, so if youre looking for cheap healthcare and think of Health Center 3, you better be willing to stomach some inconveniences too.

City Health Centers are extremely helpful to the community. They are low-cost clinics - insurance is not needed. These Health Centers offer many services such as Prenatal Care, Family Planning (birth control), Gyn, Pediatrics, Adult Medicine, and Dental. They have their own ON-SITE labs, pharmacies, and xray departments that can be utilized by their patients. If you know someone who is struggling (with or without insurance) to afford medical care - please suggest a city health center. A lot of Philadelphians do not know about their services. Spread the word!

I took my sons here for physicals. I was happily surprised at the service. The staff was very friendly and great with my kids. I was very satisfied with the staff here. I recommend coming here.

Horrible place. They dont care. Sat in the waiting room for 2 hours in pain and no one helped me. 2nd time this happened to me. I really hate this clinic it is the worst.
