ZoomCare believes that good health makes people happier and more productive. They live longer, enjoy life and contribute to their communities in immeasurable ways. ZoomCare provides great care at an affordable price, yet some people need a little extra help now and then. ZoomCare created the ZoomCare Foundation to fill that need.
On the second Wednesday of every month, The ZoomCare Foundation supports ZoomCare Free Nights--free clinic appointments from 6-9pm at ZoomCare’s Mississippi Ave. clinic at 3872 N. Mississippi Avenue in Portland, Oregon.
